The Most Valuable Thing in Modern ML is the Ability to Share Your Developments and Peek at What Others Are Doing.

The most valuable thing in modern ML is the ability to share your developments and peek at what others are doing. AI is entirely built on borrowing and cross-pollination. Therefore, no matter the size of your project, attending conferences is necessary in any available form. You won't be able to make it to CVPR (it has already concluded), but you can still make it to the Turbo ML Conf 2026 in Moscow on July 18. The organizers promise three streams: Fundamental Advances & Exploratory R&D, Applied ML at Scale & Business Impact, and ML Infrastructure, Platforms & Engineering Core. But at conferences, the most important thing is networking. So the guys have focused on more applied cases so that you have more opportunities to discuss them over a cup of coffee or something more interesting. The conference is free, but you need to hurry to register to avoid asking your team leader for a pass.
