- Examine what high performance actually looks like when speed outpaces alignment.
- Explore where human judgment must lead automation.
- Share lived experiences around trust, decisiveness, and ownership in AI-powered systems.

E14 HumanX - Supercharging World Models with World Critics
Everyone is talking about world models. But the real thing — the ability to extrapolate, to fill in what's unseen and instinctively understand what must be true — is a much harder problem than making things look right. From Genie to JEPA to World Labs, the frontier is shifting from rendering to simulation. We think that's worth talking about over drinks.
Join us for a short talk from Qin Zhang (Physion Labs), who is actively working in this space, followed by open time to continue the conversation over food and drinks.
