2077AI Research Happy Hour — Beyond the Data Wall

​As models scale, the data that trains them hasn't kept pace — public text is running low, benchmarks are increasingly contaminated, and "more data" no longer means "better data."

​Abaka AI is hosting a small, invite-only gathering of researchers and professors working at the frontier of this problem. Over food and conversation, we'll dig into:

• ​Is synthetic data actually solving scarcity, or just recycling the same signal?

• ​Which benchmarks can we still trust — and which have quietly leaked into training sets?

• ​What does the next generation of training data actually need to look like?

​This isn't a pitch event. It's a working conversation among people who think seriously about this problem, hosted at Abaka's new office.
