AboutIn the host's words.

This is a Gradient Gathering cohosted by Gradient Institute and FAR.AI during the NeurIPS 2026 week.

Join us for an evening exploring the state of frontier AI model evaluation and red teaming: what current approaches reveal, where they fall short, and what challenges remain.

Two technical opening talks will be followed by a moderated panel bringing together research, government, and industry perspectives, with time to connect afterwards.

Confirmed speakers include:

  • Tiberio Caetano, Chief Scientist @ Gradient Institute

  • Karl Berzins, Co-Founder & President @ FAR.AI

  • Paul Salmon, Head of AI Safety Research and Evaluation @ Australian AI Safety Institute

  • Jasper Timm, Member of Technical Staff @ FAR.AI

  • Sarah Erfani, Professor of Artificial Intelligence @ University of Melbourne

  • More to be announced!
