AI needs a better brain – and Edo Freedom is building it.
In 2025, TechCrunch took place on October 27-29 at Moscone West in San Francisco, Pinecone founder and CEO Edo Liberty explains why the next wave of AI-Native apps isn't driven by a smarter search, while bigger models aren't driven by. With over 10,000 startups and VC leaders expected to be confused, this AI stage fireside chat and presentation is a must-have session.
The future of AI is nothing more than data – it's a better search
Once AI is embedded in every workflow, the real differentiator is not just algorithms, but how to access and use the right data. Liberty believes that searched generation (RAG) and dedicated infrastructure are the next frontier, with searching at the heart of it.
In his session, “Why Search is the Next Frontier,” Liberty will unlock ways that Vector databases and high-performance infrastructure can unlock the full potential of AI. There is so much data and knowing how to find out what is important – fast – is everything. This talk goes deeper into a stack that is powering smarter and scalable applications across the industry.
Why you don't want to miss this session
Liberty helped build the AI backbone on Amazon, and now with Pinecone, he scales next-gen search for hundreds of thousands of developers and enterprise teams. If you're building with AI, this is a roadmap to where the ecosystem is heading next.
