What is AI Tinkerers?
AI Tinkerers is a meetup designed exclusively for practitioners who possess technical, machine learning, and entrepreneurial backgrounds and are actively building and working with foundation models, such as large language models (LLMs) and generative AI. If you’re deeply passionate about creating LLM-enabled applications, have hands-on experience in building such systems, and are eager to connect with like-minded individuals who share your level of commitment, then this group is the perfect fit for you. With AI Tinkerers meetups taking place in multiple cities, we cater to a dedicated community of practitioners.
Who is this for?
We’re not “AI Enthusiasts”, we are AI Tinkerers. The core essence of AI Tinkerers lies in active collaboration surrounding early-stage discovery and innovation, which requires a high degree of experimentation, vulnerability, openness to sharing challenges and learnings, and collaboration among individuals with a shared level of expertise. This unique environment allows us to push the boundaries of what’s possible with AI and LLMs while maintaining a strong sense of camaraderie and mutual support.

Testimonials 💬
👑 Sponsors
The event is generously sponsored by Trilogy Equity Partners.
Trilogy Equity Partners invests capital in companies they are passionate about. They have grown and exited businesses as operators themselves here in the Seattle area, and they started Trilogy to help others do it too. They raised their second fund of more than $150M this year to continue to invest in and support the growth and success of early-stage companies in the Pacific Northwest. The majority of the capital they invest in their portfolio is their own, which gives them more freedom to be selective and passionate about the founders they partner with. Bottom line, investing their own money means that they care deeply about your success and can give you the time to achieve it. The secret sauce, if there is one, is that most of their partners have run businesses or large parts of businesses. They bring the perspective of someone who actually has been there, done that..so they know it’s not easy.
