About this event

New frontiers in modeling, architecture, algorithms, and infra are often the loudest advancements in AI. But beneath all of it is a fundamental layer without which no models would exist: data.

Join SPC's Post-Training forum for a technical and product-focused conversation with Mercor's CEO, Brendan Foody. We'll dig into what it takes to design data and environments at the frontier, and the unique challenges of sourcing the expert human intelligence required to power the post-training and RL recipes of tomorrow's models.

When (updated): Wednesday, September 16th, 3:00 - 4:00pm Where: SPC SF

Moderated by Nick Mecklenburg (CTO, Whitney AI; prev post-training at Microsoft Superintelligence)
