Why This Bootcamp?
Generative AI has taken center stage. It's no longer just a dedicated vertical in companies—it's becoming a core component of engineering teams worldwide. If you haven't realized yet, with the release of OpenAI's o1, we're at a transformative moment akin to when the Transformer architecture—the "T" in ChatGPT—was invented.
In this bootcamp, you'll:
- Dive Deep into the Future: Explore why Generative AI is the next big thing and where Large Language Models (LLMs) are headed.
- Learn from the Best: Gain insights from Current/Ex-Google Brain, OpenAI, and Pathway team members.
- Build Real-World Solutions: Move beyond toy projects to efficiently learn and solve the needs that arise when you productionize Generative AI, building solutions that are both impactful and viable.
Let’s go! 🚀

About Pathway
At Pathway, we believe that memory and the ability to learn on the fly is the single biggest limitation facing current transformer-based AI models. Pathway is a post-transformer neo-lab that has solved that problem. We are delivering a faster path to AGI through true continuous learning and long horizon reasoning. To learn more about BDH, visit pathway.com.
Pathway is led by co-founder & CEO Zuzanna Stamirowska, a complexity scientist who created a team consisting of AI pioneers, including CTO Jan Chorowski who was the first person to apply Attention to speech and worked with Nobel laureate Geoff Hinton at Google Brain, as well as CSO Adrian Kosowski, a leading computer scientist and quantum physicist who obtained his PhD at the age of 20.
Pathway has strong investor backing. To date, we have raised over $15M; our latest reported round was our seed.
Our offices are located in Palo Alto, CA, as well as Paris, France, and Wroclaw, Poland.
