Timeline (last 90 days)
The Scale alumni network possesses all three capabilities—"building companies", "investing in companies" and "setting the rules"—so its influence amplifies itself.
Scale is one of the earliest companies to take IOI (International Olympiad in Informatics) and IMO (International Mathematical Olympiad) backgrounds to the extreme.
The technical background of Scale's early core business is RLHF (reinforcement learning from human feedback), that is, serving as the intermediary layer providing high-quality human feedback data for frontier labs.
The density and span of the Scale alumni network cannot be matched by any second comparable sample in the AI industry.
Scale was merely doing the hard work between data and models, and along the way it honed a group of people into founders capable of operating independently.
The end of the post mentions that the group photo of the list came from Nate Herman's wedding, and the poster says he counts as a co-founder of Scale in many senses.
Reducto's customers include Harvey, Scale, and one of the world's top five hedge funds.
