Keynotes and entertainment
SAS Explore will also feature two thought-provoking keynotes plus an entertainer who demonstrates that technologists can laugh at themselves:
- Sal Khan, founder and CEO of Khan Academy and one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People, will explore how AI could save (not destroy) education and spark the greatest positive transformation that learning has ever seen.
- Allie K. Miller, a top AI leader, advisor, and investor, will discuss how to successfully build, scale, and outperform with AI.

- Don McMillan, America’s top nerdy comedian and an America’s Got Talent contestant, will show the hilarious side of an engineer’s mind (complete with charts and graphs).
“What’s exciting about generative AI and tools like ChatGPT is that they illustrate to a wide audience the enormous potential of AI and analytics. What’s exciting about SAS Explore is that it provides a roadmap for putting AI into action and delivering on the promise of analytics for everyone, everywhere,” said Jared Peterson, Senior Vice President of Engineering at SAS, who will serve as host at SAS Explore.
