    Head of Enterprise AI, Scale AI | Xoogler, Sr. Staff SWE/Manager, Google | Tenured Prof of CS, Vanderbilt

    ✨  Reflections on My First Month at Scale AI A month in, I’m more convinced than ever that realizing the full value of AI in the enterprise requires more than just great models — it demands a deep understanding of business needs and true partnership with customers. A few thoughts as I settle in as Head of Enterprise AI at @Scale AI after my first month: 💡 Enterprise AI value = deep understanding + real partnership Unlocking AI’s potential takes more than great models — it’s about deeply understanding enterprise needs and embedding AI into real workflows. I’ve been so impressed by our team’s hands-on engagement with every customer and their relentless drive to deliver impact. 🤝 Incredible teamwork & talent Working with such passionate, domain-savvy colleagues has been energizing. Every engagement feels like a masterclass in collaboration, learning, and innovation. 🚀 Culture of first principles & innovation As our CEO Jason Droege puts it, Scale’s culture is about thriving where innovation meets impact. The team’s commitment to solving complex problems — and thinking from first principles — is what truly sets Scale apart. 🌎 Driving real-world transformation through AI From data quality to evaluation to enterprise integration, Scale is helping organizations move beyond experimentation to actual business value — accelerating how AI shapes every industry. 🧠 We’re hiring! If you’re excited about building reliable, impactful AI systems, driving innovation, and pushing the boundaries of cutting-edge research, come join us.

  • 📣 Unveiling our newest benchmark, VisualToolBench (VTB), the first benchmark designed to evaluate how well multimodal large language models can interact with and reason about visual information. VTB represents a shift from models that passively “think about images” to those that actively “think with images.” It treats visuals as a dynamic cognitive workspace, challenging models to crop, edit, and enhance images to uncover insights and solve complex, multi-step problems.

  • The biggest impact of AI on national security isn’t drones, it’s in strengthening the human decisions that guide them. To trust AI in command and control systems, we need more than theoretical frameworks. It requires rigorous, continuous Test & Evaluation (T&E). At Scale, we believe the path forward involves: ✅ Domain-specific benchmarks over generic tests ✅ Adversarial AI Red Teaming to surface hidden biases and vulnerabilities ✅ Treating T&E as a continuous lifecycle, not a one-time check This is how we build trust in AI systems that inform the most critical national security decisions.

    Co-founder at Crustdata (YC F24) | Real-time B2B data for AI Agents

    The Scale AI mafia has raised more than $1.2 Billion in total funding. Born out of one of AI’s most important infrastructure companies, Scale alumni know how clean data powers billion-dollar models. Now they’re building their own companies and it's no surprise that investors are backing the people who’ve worked at the intersection of data labeling, infrastructure, and enterprise adoption. Using Crustdata (YC F24)’s People Search API and Funding API, we found the top 10 most funded ex-Scale employees turned founders: 1. Cognition: Co-founded by Steven Hao Funding Raised: $696M 2. Cobot: Founded by Brad Porter Funding Raised: $140M 3. David AI: Founded by Tomer C. and Ben Wiley Funding Raised: $80M 4. Secureframe: Founded by Shrav Mehta Funding Raised: $78.5M 5.

    Sat down with Lenny Rachitsky to talk about where AI is headed and how we’re making it work for model builders, enterprises and governments. Also went down memory lane about my time at Uber Eats. 🙂

  • We hosted our first International AI Base Camp in the GCC region, one of the most exciting hubs for AI innovation. 🌍 The event brought together leaders who are shaping AI's future through strategic investments, large-scale implementation programs, and groundbreaking policy development. A huge thank you to our keynote speaker, The Rt Hon Theresa May, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom (2016-2019) and British Home Secretary (2010-2016), and to our partners Omantel and Amazon Web Services (AWS) for making this incredible gathering possible.
