Join us for this exciting AI Evals book launch event! As AI becomes central to product development, teams need a systematic way to know whether their AI features are actually working. Evals (short for evaluations) are the testing & measurement practices that let you do this. Evals experts Hamel Husain & Shreya Shankar will share practical frameworks for designing eevals, interpreting results, & using them to make faster, more confident product decisions.

Thanks to our sponsor Raindrop.ai, each in-person attendee will receive a free copy of Hemal & Shreya's new book Evals for AI Engineers ! And Hemal & Shreya will sign your book for you!

We'll meet IN-PERSON at Intuit's HQ in Mountain View & also stream via Zoom for remote attendees, so there are separate tickets for each. I'll send the Zoom link the morning of the event to everyone registered for a Zoom ticket on TicketLeap.

If you join in person, there will be dinner & networking before the talk & more networking after the talk.

For remote attendees: Our sponsors Deloitte & Vapi are raffling off 20+ free copies of the ebook Evals for AI Engineers! You can enter the raffle as part of online registration.
