Inception x Ray Summit: Diffusion LLM Social

Join Inception during the Ray Summit for drinks, bites, and conversation with our team and others across AI research and engineering.Earlier that evening, Inception co-founder Aditya Grover will be speaking about the research and systems behind Mercury 2, the first commercial reasoning model based on diffusion, and how dLLMs are reshaping post-training, RL, and inference.After the talk, join us nearby to meet the Inception team, learn more about what we're building, and connect with others in the AI community.This will be a closed event and RSVP is required. Space is limited, so please request to join and we’ll send a confirmation if your RSVP is approved.About InceptionInception is building the next generation of large language models using diffusion. Unlike traditional autoregressive LLMs that generate tokens sequentially, diffusion LLMs generate outputs in parallel, enabling significantly faster inference.Our flagship model, Mercury 2, runs at over 1,000 tokens per second on standard NVIDIA GPUs and is 5x faster than speed-optimized models at a fraction of the cost, with comparable quality.We're a team of researchers and engineers based in Redwood City working across model training, post-training, reinforcement learning, inference, data, evaluation, and systems to push diffusion LLMs forward.If you're already attending Ray Summit and interested in the future of LLMs, we'd love to see you there!Join InceptionWe’re hiring scientists and engineers to help us accelerate inference, scale our models, and realize the many benefits of diffusion-based language modeling.Interested in joining the team?
