Chef Shuai Wang was the runner-up on the 22nd season of Bravo’s Top Chef and is the force behind two standout restaurants in Charleston, South Carolina—Jackrabbit Filly and King BBQ—where he brings together the flavors of his childhood in Beijing and the spirit of the South in some pretty unforgettable ways. He grew up just a short walk from Tiananmen Square, in a tiny home with no electricity or running water, where his grandmother often cooked over charcoal. Later, in Queens, New York, his mom taught herself to cook—her first dishes were a little salty, but they were always made with love. And somewhere along the way, Shuai learned that cooking wasn’t just about food—it was about taking care of people. After years working in New York kitchens, he made his way to Charleston and started building something that feels entirely his own. Today, we’re talking about how all those experiences come together on the plate, the family stories behind his cooking, and what it’s been like to share that journey on national TV.

Join Tommy Shaughnessy from Delphi Ventures as he hosts Sam Lehman, Principal at Symbolic Capital and AI researcher, for a deep dive into the Reinforcement Learning (RL) renaissance and its implications for decentralized AI. Sam recently authored a widely discussed post, "The World's RL Gym", exploring the evolution of AI scaling and the exciting potential of decentralized networks for training next-generation models.The World’s RL Gym: https://www.symbolic.capital/writing/the-worlds-rl-gym 🎯 Key Highlights The three phases of AI scaling: Pre-training, Inference Time Compute, and the RL Renaissance. How DeepMind's novel RL approach (using GRPO) created powerful reasoning models with minimal human data. Understanding "reasoning traces" and how models learn to "think" longer and more effectively. The potential downsides of human preference data potentially inhibiting model creativity, drawing parallels to AlphaGo. Exploring the "World's RL Gym" concept: Decentralizing RL through open environments, diverse tasks, and verified data. Why open, collaborative RL environments might outperform closed-source labs in generating diverse AI strategies. The critical role of high-quality base models for successful RL fine-tuning. Future AI architectures: Continuous learning and the potential of modular Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models. Current landscape: Open-source vs. proprietary AI, the challenge of model lock-in, and the role of crypto networks.
