Pinecone founder Edo Liberty explores the real missing link in enterprise AI at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025
At , the AI conversation goes deeper than just the latest models. On one of the AI Stages, Edo Liberty, founder and CEO of Pinecone, will deliver a session that challenges one of the most persistent assumptions in the field — that raw intelligence alone is enough. With 10,000+ startup and VC leaders expected in San Francisco from October 27–29, this fireside chat and presentation is one of the must-attend moments for anyone building AI systems that actually work in the real world. For AI to be truly useful to businesses, it needs more than language fluency or prediction accuracy. It needs knowledge. Proprietary data, domain-specific insights, real-time information retrieval — these are the ingredients that power task completion, accurate answers, and enterprise value. Liberty will break down the critical difference between intelligence and knowledge, and explain why delivering both is the key to unlocking AI's true impact. As the founder of Pinecone, Liberty is leading one of the most important infrastructure companies in the AI ecosystem. Pinecone's vector database helps organizations build high-performance AI applications at scale, with reliable retrieval and memory systems that enable real-time use of massive knowledge bases. Before launching Pinecone, Liberty served as Director of Research at AWS and led Amazon AI Labs, where he worked on key services like SageMaker and OpenSearch. He also ran Yahoo's research lab in New York, taught at Princeton and Tel Aviv University, and authored more than 75 papers and patents on machine learning, data mining, and streaming algorithms. At Disrupt 2025, Liberty brings all of that experience to bear in a session that will speak to technical leaders, AI founders, enterprise builders, and anyone trying to bridge the gap between promise and performance in artificial intelligence. Catch this conversation on one of the two AI Stages at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025, happening October 27–29 at Moscone West in San Francisco. The exact session timing to be announced on the Disrupt agenda page, so be sure to check back in often for frequent updates.
