# Livestream Talk Segments

This page lists scheduled talks that were matched to a specific timestamp inside one of the broad AI Engineer World's Fair 2026 livestreams. Matches are generated from local timed YouTube captions and retained only when speaker names and talk-title terms agree in the same caption window.

Use these as navigational evidence into the livestream, not as a substitute for a cut talk video when a dedicated recording exists.
