Intent: Memory & Context
How should AI systems structure human reasoning and knowledge? We'll dig into how memory systems capture context passively, reconstruct intent from actions and conversations, and surface the right thing before you ask.
Panelists:
Sherwood Callaway, Founder/CEO of Sazabi
Dara Ladjevardian, Founder/CEO of Delphi
Shane Thomas, Founder/CPO of Mastra
Warren Chen, Research at Gemini
Regina Lin, Founder/CEO of ThirdLayer
Caine Ardayfio, Founder/CEO of MIRA
Attendees are technical founders, researchers, designers, and engineers.
We'll discuss:
How raw activity becomes structured intent
RAG vs. agent-driven memory traversal
Conflict resolution across time: recency, versioning
Agenda:
6:00 PM - Doors Open
6:30 PM - Fireside Panel
7:30 PM - Food & Mingle
Co-hosted by:
ThirdLayer: Building the context reasoning layer for knowledge work agents
Sazabi: the AI-native observability platform for fast-moving engineering teams
Auriel Wright: Post Training at Gemini/Deepmind

Intent Series
Intent is a recurring fireside panel for founders, researchers, and designers building the future of human-AI interaction.
The best AI products don't wait to be summoned. They collapse the distance between thought and action - understanding what you mean, not just what you say. We get together to discuss insights on building them.
