Spotlight on AI at TechCrunch Disrupt: Don’t miss these sessions backed by JetBrains and Greenfield | TechCrunch

TechCrunch Disrupt isn’t just about showcasing the startups of tomorrow — it’s also about surfacing the boldest ideas shaping technology today. Thanks to the support of our partners JetBrains and Greenfield, the TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 program, happening October 27–29 at San Francisco’s Moscone West, brings two must-see sessions that put AI front and center.

Monday, October 27 — Builders Stage

1:40 p.m. – 2:10 p.m. PT
Who’s Defining AI’s Future in 2025? The AI Disruptors 60 Unveiled
Presented by Greenfield Partners

We’ve seen it with the internet, and again with mobile: moments when technology reshapes everything. Now it’s AI’s turn — and it’s moving faster than ever. Greenfield Partners is unveiling the AI Disruptors 60 right here at Disrupt 2025: a list of early- and growth-stage startups leading the charge in AI infrastructure, applications, and go-to-market innovation.

This panel brings together top investors like Shay Grinfeld (Greenfield Partners) and founders, including Renen Hallak of VAST Data, for a candid discussion about how these companies are building the backbone of tomorrow’s AI economy. From scaling strategies to sector-defining breakthroughs, they’ll unpack what makes these startups stand out — and what’s coming next. Don’t miss the live reveal of the AI Disruptors 60 list, only at TC Disrupt.

Tuesday, October 28 — AI Stage

1:55 p.m. – 2:15 p.m. PT
Vibe coding? Cute. Now let’s get real and talk about AI built for developers
Presented by JetBrains

AI in software development often gets framed as a sprint — more speed, more output, more lines of code. But speed without quality doesn’t cut it in the real world. Join Kirill Skrygan, CEO of JetBrains, for an unfiltered look at how AI built for developers is changing the industry. This session explores why code quality — not just velocity — will define the next generation of intelligent software and how developers can harness AI to deliver at scale, with reliability and precision.

A thank-you to our partners

We’re grateful to JetBrains and Greenfield for supporting TechCrunch and making these conversations possible at Disrupt 2025. Their commitment to advancing the AI ecosystem helps us spotlight the people and companies rewriting what’s possible. Make sure these sessions are on your must-see list.

Successfully flying around the Moon and returning to Earth in a historic 10-day journey? Easy-peasy for NASA’s Artemis 2 astronauts. Now the really hard part that everybody on Earth can relate to begins: sorting out their phone’s camera roll.

Mission specialist Christina Koch and Commander Reid Wiseman had already stunned the public with their epic Earth photos taken from the Orion spacecraft’s main hatch. While they shared a gallery of shots taken with a Nikon DSLR and GoPro action camera, it was their “selfies,” shot with the iPhone 17 Pro Max’s front-facing camera, that captured everyone’s imagination.

How do you top that? On Sunday, Wiseman shared a video of a view that no human has ever shared before. No big deal, it’s just a “cell phone video of Earthset,” showing our humble Blue Planet setting behind the Moon.

See iPhone 17 Pro Max at Apple.com

 

“I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye,” Wiseman said in a post on X. “Enjoy.”

The footage immediately started going viral as jaws dropped to the floor, and likes, reposts, and comments poured in from around the world.

The video is breaking the internet for good reason—it’s as authentic as it gets. The footage isn’t edited and there’s no music. There’s zero polish to it. Just an astronaut zooming in on the Moon through Orion’s window, blurry autofocusing and all, as the iPhone 17 Pro Max’s 8x optical-quality telephoto locks onto the celestial bodies. 

Wiseman’s honest reaction only added to the moment. “Would you look at that, man? Wowww. Dude… No wayy. Fin,” he said before the view of Earth disappeared behind the lunar surface.

Dude, we would have reacted in the same exact way.

Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those… pic.twitter.com/8aWnaFJ69c

Bose’s QuietComfort Ultra 2 earbuds are the best noise-canceling earbuds you can buy. Right now, they’re $50 off, which matches the best price we tend to see outside of special events like Black Friday and Cyber Monday. If you want to wait until November, they might hit $200 again, but otherwise $250 is a very fair deal—especially since they pop back up to $300 regularly. The discounted price applies to all five color options, including Black, Deep Plum, Desert Gold, Midnight Violet, and White Smoke (another rarity, as usually only the vivid colors go on sale).

Bose

QuietComfort Ultra 2 Earbuds

Sometimes you just need to quiet the world. Whether it’s to play 10 hours of Coconut Mall on a loop to help you lock in and meet your Friday deadlines (thanks to my colleague Julia Forbes for that suggestion); muffle the crying babies, sniffling neighbors, and mysterious, potentially concerning clunking noises on an airplane; or to help you better appreciate the mix on Space Laces’ Vaultage 004 EP, active noise cancellation makes a huge difference to your listening experience.

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2 earbuds also have some of the best active noise cancellation you can find. They sound great out of the box, thanks to a custom sound profile based on the shape of your ears, but you can customize the EQ by using the app. The app also allows you to tweak touch controls and spatial audio.

The battery life lasts for about six hours, or 24 with the charging case. And while the noise cancellation can’t be beaten, these also have a pass-through feature called Aware mode, which filters in outside noise but smooths the loudest bits. That means you’ll be able to hear what’s going on, but you won’t be startled. True-crime podcast listeners, this one’s for you.

In fact, just about the only drawback we can find is that these might not be ideal for folks with super-small ears. Otherwise, they’re great all around, with solid call quality, excellent sound overall, and a sleek aesthetic. We think they offer good value at full price, so an extra $50 off is especially nice.

If you’re in the market for new headphones, but these don’t exactly fit what you’re looking for, we have plenty of other recommendations. Check out our guides to the Best Wireless Earbuds, Best Headphones for Working Out, Best Noise-Canceling Headphones, and Best Open Earbuds for additional hand-tested picks.
