Vals AI talk with Nikil Ravi
Nikil Ravi (Illinois Math & CS '23) works at Vals AI, an independent third-party evaluator that benchmarks frontier models on real work in finance, law and software, and on frontier risks like cybersecurity and recursive self-improvement. He will cover what it takes to build a good benchmark, the infrastructure behind running evals at scale, how the evals ecosystem is taking shape, and how independent assessment feeds into AI governance. Vals is hiring across research and engineering, so bring questions.
