The leak of information about the secret society "Dialog", which brings together the world's most influential technology executives, billionaires, politicians and military officials, has caused widespread discussion in the international media. According to the information published by the US publication WIRED, part of the list of 222 people registered for the organization's 2026 meeting and internal documents have been discovered in the open on the Internet.
Although Dialog, founded in 2006 by billionaire investor Peter Thiel, has been operating for many years, the identities of its members and the content of its events have been kept secret from the public. The leaked documents reveal for the first time which individuals the organization brings together.
The list includes some of the most famous figures in the technology world, such as SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk, OpenAI co-founder Greg Brockman, OpenAI strategy director Jason Kwon, LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale, YouTube CEO Neal Mohan, former Google CEO Eric Schmidt and Airtable founder Howie Liu.
The organization’s participants include not only technology leaders, but also high-ranking government officials. The list also includes US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Senators Ted Cruz and Cory Booker, Maryland Governor Wes Moore, Colorado Governor Jared Polis, European Commission Vice President Kaja Kallas, Japan’s Digital Affairs Minister Taro Kono, and former White House adviser Jared Kushner.
Leaked information suggests that Dialog is more than just a discussion club. The events discuss topics such as artificial intelligence, geopolitics, longevity, military technology, and global risks. The program also includes unusual sessions such as “Does Money Bring Happiness?”, “Let’s Bring Back Nuclear Energy,” “Finding Direction in World War III,” “Battlefield Technologies,” and “How’s Your Sex Life?”
According to the documents, the majority of participants believe that artificial intelligence will fundamentally change the economy, labor market, education system, and even political institutions in the coming years. Some participants predicted mass unemployment, while others predicted a new technological breakthrough or geopolitical conflicts.
The leak also revealed personal information collected about the organization's members. The registration system stored the participants' biographies, city of residence, political views and other personal information. In addition, it was revealed that the organization had created a special dating platform for members. Participants were asked to answer the question "Are you looking for love?" and this information was also included in the leaked database.
According to the study, the reason for the data to be leaked to the Internet was a serious security flaw on the organization's website. The section where the list of members was stored was left open in the source code of the site, and any user could have access to this information.
Analysts often call Dialog a technology version of the Bilderberg Group, which is often considered a closed meeting of the political and business elite. The leaked documents show that the organization brings together people who influence global politics, technology and financial markets on the same platform and holds informal discussions about the future.
So far, Dialog management and most of the individuals named on the list have not made an official statement on the matter. Nevertheless, the leak is considered one of the most notable elite network revelations in recent years.
