/ About this event
Heading to COLM and/or SF Tech Week? Join us for an evening where the research and the builders meet. We are hosting a panel of top researchers and founders from the field to open the conversation, then keep it casual: drinks, and time to meet the founders, investors, and operators building what comes next, and (continual) learning from each other.
Panelists: ⭐ Jason Wu, Senior Director at Salesforce AI Research. His research sits at the nexus of AI, Humanity, and Business – pushing the boundaries of frontier AI to create meaningful human progress and tangible economic growth. Recently, his primary focus areas include Agentic AI, Long-Horizon and Self-Evolving AI, RL, Trustworthy AI.
⭐ Jiwei Li, Cofounder of DeepReinforce, MIT Technology Review 35 Under 35. DeepReinforce is emerging as the leading open-weight AI model company. The recent Ornith model series achieved over 50M HF downloads within a couple of months of launching.
⭐ Di Jin, VP of AI Training at Nebius. He leads the company's model training products and services. Previously he worked on post-training for Llama 3 and Llama 4 at Meta and co-founded Eigen AI (acquired by Nebius), building serving, fine-tuning and synthetic-data products. He holds a PhD from MIT.
Our panel topic will be focused on continual learning—getting models to keep self improving from their own experience is one of the most interesting problems at the frontier, and a live question of its impact for anyone building in AI, infrastructure, physical AI, deep tech, or science.
Whether you're coming from COLM, making the rounds at SF Tech Week, or just deep in the space, we'd love to have you.
Thank you to our generous sponsor, SVB, for making this evening possible.
