Handshake AI 数据深潜：前沿实验室在买什么样的训练数据

Our first deep dive with an AI data company. In roughly a year, Handshake built an AI training business doing nearly $1 billion in gross annualized revenue. What are frontier labs buying? Garrett Lord joins us with the people building reinforcement learning environments across biology, finance and alignment.

An AI agent filled an Excel tab with every number from one to a million. An early grader found the net-income figure it wanted and awarded a point. What would an investment banker check instead?

Who’s in the room

AI data business — Garrett Lord, Sahil Bhaiwala and Nishant Ranka open and close the episode on the market for expert data.

Life sciences — Nick Magazine and Jonas Mueller put the gel and brain-tissue tasks on screen.

Finance — Collin Schweiker and Sahil Bhaiwala take us through Project Falcon and its Excel grader.

Alignment — Steve Kelling and Nishant Ranka follow the agent’s tool calls through the safety simulations.
