Hi, I’m Albert

I started AI Circle because I know the impact of community firsthand. Two instances come to mind:

1) Dave Kline, who I met on LinkedIn, referred me to Invisible Technologies where I led a team of 700 prompt engineers providing human data to frontier models.

2) Brian Benedict, one of the first members of AI Circle and Cofounder of Arcee, brought me on to lead their Client Success team building Small Language Models for enterprise.

I wanted to build for others what I so needed myself: A place for mentorship, guidance, insights, opportunities, events, and a place to celebrate the wins.

AI Circle is independent
AI Circle is proudly independent, bootstrapped and self-funded. I don’t want to raise money. I want to run a sustainable community supported by our membership dues. Being independent allows me to grow at my own pace, and make choices independently in the best interest of our members.  

Members always come first.
Our growth is fueled by our members, not by investors. And since we’re member-funded, our members are our number 1 priority. Making our members happy comes first. I always welcome feedback.  

We’re small and intimate.
I don’t mind being a small fish in the community-building pond. I see other communities with tens of thousands of members, and I am happy for them. I measure my relationships in depth, not breadth.

Let’s have fun.
I want to build a community that people love to be a part of: somewhere you can celebrate your wins, share what you’re grateful for, talk about the latest arXiv paper that made you see a problem differently. Yes, we’ll have job postings. Yes, we’ll help people get promotions. Yes, we will help people get new jobs. Yes, we’ll share best practice, so you are not reinventing the wheel. But AI Circle is meant to be the place you whistle while you work.
 

I am building in public.
I am documenting my journey on LinkedIn where I’ve met and rekindled many friendships - and many of whom are now on AI Circle. 

I’m proud of building a community where our members learn something new, build and sustain relationships, and thrive together. I hope you’ll join us.
