About This Event

Prolific × AI Circle are bringing together an intimate group of just 20 researchers, engineers, and technical leaders for a private dinner and fireside conversation exploring what comes next.

Leading the fireside chat:
Corby Rosset Applied Scientist at Microsoft Research, whose work spans large language models, search, evaluation.

Simon Mutlu GTM Leader, Prolific for AI , who works with leading AI teams on human data, model evaluation, and the role of high-quality human feedback in building better AI systems.

We’ll dig into how teams are thinking about post-training today, where human and automated evaluation each add signal, what we can learn from full agent trajectories rather than final outcomes alone, and what it would actually take to build systems that can learn from their own failures and improve over time.

This will be a small, candid conversation over dinner; no stage, no pitches, and only 20 seats designed to give everyone at the table space to contribute and connect.

RSVPs and +1s Must be Approved
