AI Meets Coffee
☕ About the Event
This is not a talk.
Not a pitch.
Not a panel.
It’s a coffee conversation ☕✨
Join us for an intimate, founder-friendly coffee meetup with David Yangbing Li, Co-founder & CTO of WaveSpeedAI, as we bring together a small circle of AI founders, builders, and curious minds to have real conversations about building AI infrastructure, scaling systems, and shaping the future of multimodal AI.
David is a serial entrepreneur and senior technology leader with hands-on experience at unicorn companies. With 8+ years in distributed systems and cloud-native architecture, and 3+ years focused on GPU computing platforms, he has led the design of large-scale distributed scheduling systems that manage tens of thousands of GPUs across multi-cloud and supercomputing environments—powering real-world, large-scale AI workloads ⚙️🧠.
Beyond engineering, David is an active contributor to the global tech community and a frequent speaker at leading conferences such as Alibaba Cloud’s Apsara Conference, where he shares frontline insights on cloud computing, distributed systems, and AI infrastructure 🌍🎙️.
Today, David and his team are building a foundational multimodal AI platform, with a bold vision: to empower creators worldwide and unlock human creativity at scale ✨🌐
This session is designed as a two-way conversation, not a presentation. Jump in anytime, ask honest questions, and exchange perspectives freely.
