My AI Engineer Singapore journey:

Most exciting:

First time traveling abroad after joining Z.ai, and my very first English talk on stage.

Most challenging:

Spoke in a three-speaker session alongside OpenAI and Google DeepMind, with Z.ai presenting third. Survived, and realized that people did like some of the things I shared.

Most surprising:

Met the @MiniMax_AI team three times, and each time we talked for at least half an hour. Instead of discussing AI, we talked about humans.

Most rewarding:

Learned a lot from deep conversations with @GeoffreyHuntley , @sarahookr, @picocreator, and many other wonderful guest speakers.

Biggest regret:

Did not have enough time to talk with everyone I wanted to know.

Proudest moment:

Stayed until the very end of every event. Got a lot of positive feedback when people had heard of GLM and Z.ai. When they had not, it felt just as meaningful to introduce what we are building.

Funniest part:

As one of the major sponsors, somehow did not look like a sponsor at all. No booth, no side events, and not much sponsor presence prepared on our side. More like a group of friends showing up to support the community.

Thanks to @aiDotEngineer, 65 Labs, all the organizers, speakers, builders, friends, and my team who made these days so memorable. I truly want to @ all of you, but I am afraid I might miss someone, so please take this as an @ from my heart.

See you at the next AI Engineer event, and see you again in Singapore soon.
