Ant Group × Beta University｜AI Frontier Invite Only Panels
On December 6, Ant Group’s platform technology leadership will join Beta University in Palo Alto for an afternoon of deep, closed-door conversations at the frontier of AI.
Designed as an intimate gathering of practitioners and thinkers, the program brings together voices from major tech companies and frontier AI labs to examine how intelligence is shifting from models to agents — and from research breakthroughs to real-world deployment.
Throughout the sessions, attendees will hear from:
• AI Research Lead — driving advancements in large-model training, agentic behaviors, and multimodal reasoning across real-world systems.
• Applied AI Science Leader — leading teams that deploy large-scale LLM and deep-learning models into high-traffic search and recommendation workflows, with research powering multi-billion-dollar product impact across industry settings.
• Conversational AI & Safety Specialist — building the safety, trust, and interaction frameworks behind next-gen generative systems; formerly led machine-learning–driven abuse detection, search quality, and visual retrieval models in large-scale environments.
Panel 1｜From Models to Agents: The Rise of Agentic Intelligence｜1:30 pm – 2:30 pm
How autonomous behaviors emerge, interact, and reshape product and ecosystem design.
Panel 2｜Self-Evolving Models: Unifying Pre-Training, Post-Training & Feedback Loops｜2:45 pm – 3:45 pm
Why continuous evolution — from RL-based refinement to real-time feedback loops — is becoming the backbone of modern model development.
Panel 3｜From Models to Markets: AI+ Applications & the Developer Ecosystem｜4:00 pm – 5:00 pm
Where AI applications are truly landing, how enterprises evaluate models, and what the developer stack looks like when intelligence becomes a core primitive.
Open Networking｜5:00 pm – 6:00 pm
