I'm currently based in NY and involved in the AI space. Lately, I've been contemplating a move to SF to immerse myself further in the tech community. The goal is to meet founders, hack, and filter the signal from the noise to brainstorm a product idea.
I'm not sure what you're asking. Are you in touch with some founders you would like to meet? What do you hope to accomplish in person that you haven't been able to do online?<p>What does "involved in the AI space" mean? It sounds like you're looking for co-founders - what would be your contribution to a possible new venture?
There is a place in SF called luma that sponsors many such events. I have never been, don't know if it is a waste of time or not. <a href="https://lu.ma/sf" rel="nofollow">https://lu.ma/sf</a>
