Gerhard Kürner directs AI strategy as the CEO of 506.ai and Vice Chairman of AI Upperaustria. He focuses on the practical mechanics of enterprise AI, helping teams navigate the fast-moving landscape of models, costs, and data accuracy.

Rather than simply hyping large language models, he tackles the hard problems of implementation. His talks break down high-performance RAG, multimodal data processing, and the buy-versus-build dilemma for AI middleware. He helps companies map the path from sequential AI steps to fully autonomous agents.
