💃 🤯 NYC'S HOTTEST TECH/NO PARTY RETURNS 🤯🕺 🤯 THIS TIME WITH ZO COMPUTER?? 🤯 A PRESS RELEASE FROM THE HOSTS: "Life, friends, is Boring. We must not say so. After all, the sky flashes, the great sea yearns, we ourselves flash and yearn. And moreover, new technologies mean new modes of working, new modes of being, new opportunities, old fantasies become new possibilities, and it seems evermoreso that the LLM is actually about the people we met and learned with along the way." VIBE CODING IS FOR EVERYONE. ZO IS FOR EVERYONE. MUSIC IS FOR EVERYONE. COME AS YOU ARE. GO FROM ZERO TO HERO. EVERYONE IS AN EXPERT AT SOMETHING. FIRST TIME? HOSTS WILL HYPE YOU UP AND HELP. RUN OF SHOW: 5:30pm: Arrive and say hi, grab a beer 6pm: TA demos by Ben Guo and Vince Picone 6:30pm: Breakout (bonus points if you build with Zo) 7:30pm: Show and tell, popcorn style 8pm: Afterparty w/ DJ set of rare vinyls by snav CAN’T MAKE IT? SELECT “NO” TO GET ON THE LIST FOR VOL. 4. TELL FRIENDS WITH WEIRD + COOL IDEAS❗️🤯 — Ben Guo is a neuroscientist turned engineer (Stripe, Venmo) who’s building Zo Computer, a personal cloud for your AI agents and much else. He was a founding engineer on Terminal. Ask him about his musician alter ego, and what he built at Harvard to help the deaf hear music. Vince Picone is a frontend architect at Hume AI, where he shows off his high EQ. Before that he was a clinical lab scientist dealing in blood, and a design engineer at IBM Research. He has two master’s degrees, just because, and does magic. Zak Hap is an engineer and serial startup boy (Liminal Media, Odefi, Commonwealth Labs) based in NYC. Ask him about sacred Japanese music. Charlie Freiberg is a soothsayer-saleswoman in NYC. Her "storytelling" (ex-Cultural Counsel) makes people love you and give you money. She can guess your childhood trauma in < 10 minutes.
