๐ณ Bowling Night for AI Enthusiasts | Toronto Founders Club
โStrikes, spares, and startup ideas. ๐ณ
โClose the laptop for a night. Toronto Founders Club is taking over the lanes for a social bowling night for founders, entrepreneurs, and professionals who work in or around AI, or are just curious about it.
โThere are no pitches, panels, or name-tag speed networking. You get an hour of bowling and the easy conversations that start when you're cheering for someone's gutter ball.
โ๐ค Who should come
โFounders and entrepreneurs building with AI, or thinking about it
โProfessionals in AI or AI-adjacent work, from product and engineering to marketing, sales, design, and operations
โAnyone who's AI-curious and wants to meet ambitious, friendly people in Toronto
โYou don't need to be good at bowling. Some of the best conversations start after a gutter ball.
โ๐ What to expect
โMixed teams, so you meet new people every frame
โHonest talk about what you're building, what's working in AI right now, and what's overhyped
โBragging rights for the highest score, and sympathy for the lowest

โ6:30 PM: Arrive, grab a drink and your bowling shoes
โ6:45 PM: Teams are set and bowling starts

โ๐ Your host
โAyush is currently at Alexa AGI working on building the Alexa+ experience. Before that, he spent several years in the Bay Area, building open-source large language models at MosaicML and working on AI infrastructure at Meta. Ask him how LLMs actually get trained, what it takes to run AI at scale, or about his bowling average (at your own risk).
โSee you on the lanes! ๐ณ
