At HumanX Conference, Everyone Is Talking About Claude

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 21:00:00 +0800

Summary: The HumanX AI conference at San Francisco’s Moscone Center drew thousands of tech professionals this week. The agenda centered on how agentic AI — systems capable of autonomously handling business and coding tasks — is being deployed broadly through enterprise and consumer chatbots. When attendees were asked which chatbot they use most, the answer was remarkably consistent: Claude.

On the Floor and in Sessions, Claude Was the Name

Anthropic came up constantly throughout the week — not just in panel discussions, but as a hot topic among expo booth operators. One floor lead explicitly said his team uses Claude extensively and believes ChatGPT and OpenAI have “fallen off.”

Nvidia Leads SiFive's $400M Round, Betting on Open-Source RISC-V AI Chips

Breaking the x86 and ARM Duopoly

SiFive’s products are based on RISC-V processor architecture — neither Intel’s x86 nor ARM. These two architectures currently almost completely monopolize the CPU supply feeding Nvidia GPU compute systems.

RISC-V is an open-source design that anyone can inspect, modify, and use. This contrasts sharply with x86’s closed proprietary model and ARM’s licensing approach. Previously RISC-V was mainly used in IoT devices and microcontrollers, but with this funding round, SiFive is targeting AI data center CPUs.

Summary: Sierra launched Ghostwriter last month — an AI Agent that creates other AI Agents. At the HumanX conference, founder Bret Taylor declared that employees will no longer need to learn how to operate enterprise software — they can simply describe what they need in natural language and the AI handles the rest. Sierra, founded less than two years ago, already exceeds $100M in ARR and carries a $10B valuation.
