Development of artificial intelligence is entering a phase where the challenge is no longer just creating the most advanced models, but also building infrastructure that can support them.
The international media company and conference organisation BizClik has announced the creation of SuperIntelligence Summi, an event that will unite technology directors, data centre operators and energy specialists.
According to an article published on October 9th by Data Centre Magazine, the first summit will be held on May 10th and May 11th 2027 at the CECII Centre in London. A second edition is scheduled for October 2027 in Washington.
Organisers aim to connect three areas that are becoming increasingly interdependent - artificial intelligence, data centers, and energy infrastructure.
BizClik executive director Glen White said artificial intelligence progress cannot be separated from infrastructure supporting it.
According to White, the union of conferences AI LIVE, Data Centre Law and Infrastructure LIVE will allow industry leaders to discuss together the challenges of developing large-scale intelligent systems.
One of the main issues is energy consumption. Advanced artificial intelligence models require powerful servers, specialized cooling systems, and sustainable electricity supplies.
Tom Chapman, senior editor of AI Magazine, has warned that industry ambitions are increasingly facing restrictions on physical infrastructure.
According to him, the discussion of artificial intelligence is shifting from algorithms to data centre capacity, power supply and cooling systems.
The summit programme will also include cyber security, technology governance, sustainability and the impact of artificial intelligence on the workforce.
In this context, the term superintelligence is used to describe future industry ambitions and increasingly powerful artificial intelligence systems. The conference announcement does not mean that an intelligent system that exceeds human capabilities in all areas has already been created.
Organisers expect the event to attract directors from international technology and infrastructure companies. Representatives from ABB, CBE, Rolls-Royce Power Systems and NTT Global Data Sisters participated in previous editions of the Data Line.
For businesses and consumers, developments in this sector can affect the cost of digital services, investments in energy and the way companies use artificial intelligence.
However, the host's main message is that technology development does not depend solely on programming. It also requires major investments in infrastructure.
As the global race for more advanced systems continues, the 2027 summit aims to address this very question: Can world infrastructure keep up with the ambitions of the artificial intelligence industry?
