Don't Push to Main: Early Tech Decisions
***No notes or photos please***
What design decisions do you need for your own foundation models? When do you build or buy? Should you consider whether or not there is ecosystem support for a new technology? When is an exotic tech choice a business moat? Calling all founders, builders, and tinkerers – join us at Pebblebed's warehouse for an evening of art, technical demos, cold drinks, and great company!
If you are an early engineer at a startup and have learnings to share, we would love to hear from you.
