OpenAI × Together: Building at the AI Frontier

​An evening with Wulfie Bain, Applied AI Lead at OpenAI

​The hardest parts of building AI products rarely fit neatly into a blog post. They emerge in the decisions teams make every day: what to build, which model to use, how to evaluate quality, when to optimise, and what it takes to move from a promising prototype to a reliable product.

​Join Wulfie Bain (Applied AI Lead, Startups @ OpenAI) for a practical conversation about building, shipping, and scaling AI products. Drawing on his work with startups across EMEA and APAC, he’ll share the patterns, best practices, trade-offs, and practical insights that have helped teams build and ship cutting-edge AI products.

​Before joining OpenAI, he founded Lounge, which reached more than 500k users and raised over $4 million. He previously worked at BCG and Entrepreneur First and guest lectures at Oxford on rationality and uncertainty in entrepreneurship.
