Jerry Wu

Jerry Wu is the co-founder and CEO of Halluminate (YC S25), a San Francisco startup building synthetic, fully-simulated versions of the internet so AI agents can learn to use computers and browsers reliably. A Cornell computer science and economics graduate who once researched model quantization, he previously led product and research at Capital One Labs, where he shipped one of the first AI agents in financial services and co-authored three patents. With longtime collaborator Wyatt Marshall, he is building what the pair call Westworld: a catalog of realistic sandboxes and expert-annotated evaluations that AI labs use to train and test computer-use agents at scale.
