Dan Shipper
Dan Shipper is the co-founder and CEO of Every, a New York-based applied AI lab that publishes a daily newsletter read by more than 130,000 builders and ships a bundle of AI software products. He writes Chain of Thought, a weekly column on how AI reshapes work and thinking, and hosts the AI & I podcast. A philosophy major who sold his first company before graduating from Penn, Shipper has become one of the most-read chroniclers of the AI era, arguing that the line between writer and builder is dissolving.
Linda Haviv
Linda Haviv is a Staff Developer Advocate at Anyscale and founder of CodingCrystals.com, best known for her wildly nonlinear path from philosophy major and professional singer to site reliability engineer and AI infrastructure advocate. After graduating summa cum laude as Baruch College's salutatorian, teaching herself to code at The Flatiron School, and spending years as a JavaScript developer and SRE at Fox Corporation, she joined AWS as a developer advocate before landing at Anyscale — the company behind Ray, the open-source distributed computing framework that powers OpenAI's ChatGPT training. She uses her platform to demystify AI infrastructure for developers everywhere, and sells STEM-inspired crystal jewelry on the side.
