Built close to the work.

Before WithAI, Ben was the founding researcher and chief of staff at unicorn AI lab Sentient. He oversaw prompt security and multi-agent coordination work and built a million-strong community. He received a bachelor's and a master's in Electrical and Computer Engineering Magna Cum Laude from Princeton, writing acclaimed theses on solar power investment and a novel blockchain design to solve coordination issues in Energy. He grew up in Maryland, Mongolia, Kenya, and Indonesia.

Before WithAI, Ian was an investor at Bridgewater Associates in all asset classes. He spearheaded the questions "How will AI affect the economy?" and "How can we use LLMs to invest?" At Princeton, he studied pure math, applied math, humanistic studies, and European cultural studies, graduating with a perfect GPA. Ian authored several papers (check arXiv) and one novel (check nowhere). He's a classically trained (albeit rusty) Shakespearean actor and opera singer.

Before WithAI, Edison was a research assistant at Princeton's Robotic Intelligence and SysteMs Lab (PRISM), where he works on world models. His current project studies how fine-tuning them on VLM-generated synthetic trajectories affects the physical and visual fidelity of predicted rollouts. A New Yorker by upbringing, he plays basketball and unwinds at the poker table.

Before WithAI, Skyler was a theoretical climate researcher and spent two years approaching strangers in the streets of England as a missionary. At Princeton, he studies financial engineering while building cargo airships and humanoid robots. He competed internationally in duet piano and now plays squash and builds trading systems for fun.
