GTC HH: "Are Small Models the Future of AI?" w/ the Weights and Biases Co-Founder Lukas Biewald
Fireside Chat + Live Demo + Free drinks & food to wind down after NVIDIA GTC 2026
Join Lukas Biewald (founder and CEO of Weights & Biases Weights & Biases) and Ash Lewis & George Maloney (Co-founders of Fastino Labs) for drinks and a casual conversation on SLMs in production AI and model optimization.
Expect great conversations, some secret sauce on taking a company to a billion-dollar exit, and if we can convince the Fastino team, a live demo of what they've been cooking up. Plenty of time to meet others pushing the frontier of AI too.
We're also raffling off a free NVIDIA Jetson and Mac Mini!
No GTC badge required.
