Latent Space: The AI Engineer Podcast · Captaining IMO Gold, Deep Think, On-Policy RL, Feeling the AGI in Singapore — Yi Tay · 23 Jan 2026 podcast

So th we'll talk about the event first.

So the event was mostly so Quok and I are going to start a team and then I think before I came back, we discussed this for some time.

Jeff was very supportive of this.

He was in the region many times in Vietnam and Singapore last like uh bo about around the time where I was going to come back.

And I think that so this event itself was Quok and Jeff was were visiting and we just inspire the community here.

I think that it's also a bit more like a soft like setting the tone right for the start of the Gemini team in Singapore.

And I think it's a very rare instance where you get somebody like Jeff and Quok who are the true pioneers of AI i in the world to be in one room and then are you there as well?

And I think like many people told me the true pioneer of AI, but yeah.

I was there too to live tweet.

Yeah, yeah.

I think having them all in one room and then giving these talks, like many people came up to me and said they were very inspired by their presence in the region.

So starting a team and starting something is also very like there's also no one moment that it's not okay, I press the button and it starts, right?

It's like a process, right?

So we hire people and then people join one by one and stuff sub s something like that, right?

So I think this event was more

I would say like uh to set the vibe.

I think it's possible for Singapore to be close to the frontier.

And I think that we quit having the true pioneers of AI here, we want to give this basically more like an inspiring thing.

And also get like for Cork and Jeff to meet the people here and then so Jeff was here last year but Cork hasn't been here for some time and he's gonna have team here, so it's like also nice to bring him around and meet the people here.

So it was a really like amazing event.
