Or are we on the brink of a revolution that could add decades of healthy, vibrant years to our lives? We're all drowning in the hype: biohacking bros, miracle supplements, and tech billionaires chasing immortality. It's easy to be skeptical. But behind the noise, real science is happening. A fundamental shift is underway in how we think about aging—not as an inevitability, but as a condition that can be understood, managed, and even treated. So, how do we separate the science from the science fiction? Join us for an evening where we cut through the noise. "Longevity Medicine: Beyond the Buzz" brings together the leading minds and the boldest innovators who are turning the dream of a longer healthspan into a clinical reality. First, a no-holds-barred panel discussion with world-class clinicians and researchers. We'll tackle the tough questions: What are the most promising scientific pathways right now? How do we move from theory to practice in the clinic? And critically, how do we ensure these breakthroughs create a healthier future for everyone, not just the privileged few? Then, see the future in action. Get a front-row seat as a curated group of visionary startups present their groundbreaking solutions. These aren't just ideas on a whiteboard; they are the tools and technologies being built today to help us all live healthier, longer. Apply to Pitch right here on the MedStartr Platform with that ticket type below. If you're a clinician, an investor, a founder, or simply someone who believes we can do better than just accepting the decline of aging, this is your event. Let's get past the buzz and get down to the business of building a longer, healthier future. Together. Our panel and pitch contest judges are leaders in the space who have built Longevity innovations, written books about them and are among the most expert in the space. Come ready to listen, learn, and see some of the best new companies building Longevity solutions.

Quantified Self Show&Tell and Book Launch

Tue, Oct 13, 10:30 PM

From NY Quantified Self

4.7

**TO REGISTER, GO TO LUMA: [https://luma.com/y90ai111](https://luma.com/y90ai111)** **Please do not RSVP or join the waitlist on Meetup.** Meetup registration is closed for this event. Tickets and the head count are on Luma only. **Quantified Self is back in New York.** It's been a while. Our last Show&Tell was in March 2017. Almost ten years. It's time to bring the community back together. We're doing a special evening of self-tracking Show&Tell talks, tool demos, and the launch of Gary Wolf's new book, *[The Quantified Self: Learning to Observe](https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/gary-wolf/the-quantified-self/9781523527946/)* (Workman, on sale Oct 6). Come reconnect with old friends, meet new people, see what our community is building, and hear what everyone's been tracking. **When:** Tuesday, October 13, 6:30–8:30 PM **Where:** Civic Hall, 124 E 14th St, New York, NY 10003 (Union Square) **Tickets (on Luma):** $15 per person, or $48 including a copy of the book. Space is limited to 60, and spots fill up fast, so please register on Luma as soon as you can. **6:30–7:00 pm · Social gathering & demos** We'll start with drinks, demos, and time to reconnect. If you're building something useful for self-trackers, you're welcome to demo at a table before and after the program. Interested in demoing? [Apply here.](https://forms.gle/3VGc5bQHc9CQKQkf8) **7:00–8:15 pm · Welcome, the QS book, and Show&Tell talks** A quick welcome, a few words from Dr. Jay Varma on [Civic Health](https://www.civichall.org/civic-health), and from Gary Wolf on the new book and where the movement goes from here. Then our main event: a few Show&Tell talks from people running their own self-tracking experiments. Each talk runs about 10–15 minutes. **8:15–8:30 pm · Social & demos** Talk to the speakers, ask people what they're tracking, and hang out. **How a Show&Tell works** "What did you do? How did you do it? What did you learn?" These 3 questions are the format for our QS Show&Tell talks. A talk is a first-person account of a self-tracking project: someone tracked something about themselves — sleep, mood, diet, symptoms, focus, anything — and shows what happened. These are not product pitches or research presentations. How you did it usually teaches the room more than what you found out, and it's often what leads to new questions and ideas. Unfinished projects and unclear results are welcome. Questions from the room follow each talk. **Give a talk** Have a project to share? A few talk slots are open. [Fill out this form.](https://forms.gle/gG5bDF7TDaRu9iPb8) New to Quantified Self?

The Quantified Self: Gary Wolf on What AI Can Actually Tell You About Your Data

Thu, Oct 15, 9:00 PM

From Startup Grind NYC

4.7

🚨 **[CLICK HERE TO RSVP](https://www.startupgrind.com/e/my9dfp/)** 👈 This year, OpenAI started letting people connect their medical records and Apple Health data to ChatGPT. Since 2024, Americans can buy a continuous glucose monitor without a prescription. For most of the **[Quantified Self](http://quantifiedself.com/)** movement's history, answering a question with your own data meant manual logs and spreadsheets. Today a sensor collects the data **and an AI model analyzes it on demand**. That leaves every founder building in this space with one hard question: **when an AI's answer changes what someone eats or takes, how do they know it's right?** **[Gary Wolf](http://antephase.com/)** has spent nearly 20 years watching people try to answer questions with their own data. He co-founded Quantified Self with Kevin Kelly, joined the **[WIRED](https://www.wired.com/)** editorial team in 1994, became the first executive producer of **Wired Digital**, and launched **Wired News**. His New York Times Magazine cover story on self-tracking brought the practice to a mainstream audience, and his **[TED talk](https://www.ted.com/talks/gary_wolf_the_quantified_self)** on the subject has been watched more than a million times. His current work is about **AI and personal data**. He's researching a cryptographic protocol to prove where sensor data came from at the moment it's recorded, and writing essays on how people talk to AI chatbots. His new book, **[The Quantified Self: Learning to Observe](http://quantifiedself.com/book/)**, lays out a method anyone can use to test a question against their own data. On **Thursday, October 15**, Gary joins Startup Grind to talk about what AI changes for people using their own data, and what that means for the founders building those products. 🚨 **[CLICK HERE TO RSVP](https://www.startupgrind.com/e/my9dfp/)** 👈 **WHAT YOU'LL LEARN** * **What AI changed for self-trackers:** The analysis Quantified Self members once did by hand, and what a user can now do in one conversation with a model. * **When to trust a model's answer:** How to tell when an AI reading of your sleep or blood sugar holds up, and what a user needs before acting on it. * **Proving where data came from:** Gary's research on verifying sensor data at the moment it's recorded, and what it means for products that make health claims. * **Building around the user's question:** The question, observe, reason, discover method from his new book, and how to design a product around what a user is actually asking. **WHO SHOULD ATTEND** * **AI health and wellness founders:** Your model tells people what their data means, and they're going to act on it. * **Wearable and sensor founders:** You collect the data, and your users can now hand it to an AI to interpret. * **AI product builders in any category:** You're shipping personalized advice and want to hear from someone who has studied how people make sense of their own numbers for nearly 2 decades. * **Founders who track themselves:** You've already asked a chatbot about your sleep data and want to know how far to trust the answer. **Tickets for this event include food and drinks**, as well as time with Gary after the chat to ask about your own product. 🚨 **[CLICK HERE TO RSVP](https://www.startupgrind.com/e/my9dfp/)** 👈 **BONUS:** you'll have an opportunity to purchase Gary's new book and get your copy signed by the author, himself! You'll also meet dozens of other high-performing entrepreneurs who are creating their next big thing. Seriously, it's some of the best founder networking in the city. Getting a ticket guarantees admission. **No waitlisting**. **AGENDA** * 6:00 PM: Networking, Food & Drinks * 7:00 PM: Fireside Chat with Gary Wolf * 8:00 PM: Meet the Speaker + Book Signing And don't miss our other monthly tech events. They are great opportunities for builders, founders, and operators to network with each other to share best practices and find new resources to grow your startup the right way.

Forward Pass 📊 — Applied AI Builders at Time Out Market DUMBO

Thu, Oct 22, 10:00 PM

From NYC Applied AI Builders

**We're heading to the waterfront for this one.** Join us at Time Out Market in DUMBO — upstairs and on the rooftop — with panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline, Brooklyn Bridge, and the East River. An evening of conversation with the engineers, researchers, data scientists, and builders in NYC who are working on applied AI. From production ML systems and agentic workflows to quantitative methods and AI for financial data. No slides. No presentations. No pitches. Just good food, great views, honest conversation, and meeting the people in this city who care about the same hard problems you do — shipping AI that actually works in the real world. **Why we keep showing up:** The applied AI community in New York is massive but fragmented. The quant researchers are behind NDAs. The startup engineers are heads-down building. The ML platform teams are buried in infrastructure. The academics are publishing papers nobody in industry reads. The governance people are writing policies nobody in engineering follows. This group puts all of those people in the same room — and the conversations that come out of it are why people keep coming back. Come with whatever you're building, whatever you're stuck on, or whatever problem you've been wrestling with this week. Bring your questions, your half-baked architectures, and your honest takes on what's actually working versus what's just demo magic. Whether you've been to every event or this is your first time — you'll fit right in. **What the evening looks like:** Show up. Grab food from any of the 15+ vendors on the ground floor — tacos, burgers, poke, pizza, dumplings, whatever you're in the mood for. Grab a drink from the bar. Head upstairs and find the group. If the weather's right we'll be on the rooftop with the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan skyline behind us. Introduce yourself. Talk about what you're building, what stack you're using, what's breaking in production, and what problems keep you up at night. Time Out Market is spacious, casual, and built for exactly this kind of gathering — enough room to move around and meet new people, relaxed enough to settle into a real conversation, and a backdrop that reminds you why you live in this city. **Who should come:** ML engineers, data scientists, AI researchers, platform engineers, quantitative researchers, financial engineers, product managers building AI products, startup founders, data engineers, students, and anyone in NYC who is serious about applied AI. Whether you're shipping agents at a startup, building ML infrastructure at a bank, researching deep learning for time series, or just trying to get your first model into production — you belong here. **What we talk about:** Agentic AI — orchestration, tool use, multi-agent systems, evaluation, and what it actually takes to run autonomous systems in production. LLMs in the real world — RAG architectures, fine-tuning, prompt engineering, and the gap between what works in a notebook and what works at scale. AI for financial data — deep learning for time series, NLP on earnings calls and SEC filings, reinforcement learning for sequential decision-making, factor modeling, and backtesting methodology. Observability and governance — tracing, monitoring, model risk, compliance, and the oversight layer that determines whether your AI system is trustworthy. Infrastructure and engineering — data pipelines, feature stores, model serving, MLOps, and the unglamorous work that makes everything else possible. And whatever else comes up when you put a room full of builders together over food and drinks with the Brooklyn Bridge in the background. **A few notes:** 🍕 15+ food vendors on the ground floor — grab whatever you want, pay for what you order. There's something for every budget and every diet. 🍸 Full bar available upstairs ⏰ Arrive when you can — the earlier you come, the more people you'll meet 🌇 If weather permits we'll be on the rooftop — dress accordingly 📍 Look for the NYC Applied AI Builders group upstairs or on the rooftop — we'll post the exact location in the discussion on event day 🚇 **Getting there** — F train to York St, 5 minute walk. A/C to High St, 7 minute walk. 📍 **Time Out Market New York** — 55 Water St, Brooklyn, NY 11201 (DUMBO) 🕐 **6:00 PM – 8:00 PM** See you on the waterfront. 📊

The AI Briefing by Startup Grind - Private Equity: What Owners & Buyers Pay For

Fri, Oct 9, 2:00 PM

From Startup Grind NYC

4.7

**👉 [CLICK HERE](https://www.startupgrind.com/events/details/startup-grind-new-york-city-presents-the-ai-briefing-by-startup-grind-private-equity-what-owners-amp-buyers-pay-for/) TO RSVP FOR FREE 👈** **The AI Briefing is a recurring AI deep-dive for decision-makers.** Each month, we select one high-signal industry report, circulate it in advance, and meet to cut through the noise. 📜 **This month's source:** [The PE AI Adoption Benchmark: From scaling to systematizing](https://drive.google.com/file/d/17p8t4xEmwpztRe_gnLPGxqWDAlW9AbVG/view?usp=sharing) (*Accordion with Wakefield Research – May 2026*) Somebody's going to ask what your AI spend returned. If your company has a board or an eventual buyer, that question is already scheduled. Private equity gets asked first, so that's where this month's data comes from. Accordion surveyed 150 technology and AI operating partners at PE sponsors about the finance functions inside their portfolios. **41% are scaling AI across multiple companies with no operational playbook**, and only 29% describe their firm as systematizing or leading. 75% of those companies arrived at acquisition unprepared or only partially ready for any of it. **86% of these operating partners expect buyers to pay a premium for AI-enabled finance capability within two years**, and 44% say buyers are already asking in diligence without paying for it yet. Conviction is running ahead of price. **The deployment that worked and left no evidence behind it is the one that costs you at exit**. 67% of firms measure hours recovered. 29% put AI impact in front of a board. **🏔️ The Mission:** Building the evidence a board or a buyer will accept * We'll work the measurement problem directly: which AI metrics connect to EBITDA, and how a company gets there without starting over. * We'll examine **why only 14% of portfolio finance functions have crossed from back-office automation into real decision intelligence**, and what the rest are paying for instead. **📊 The Format:** * **The benchmark, fast:** Five findings and the numbers under them, including the ones that don't hold up. * **Translating it out of PE:** Sponsors run this test on a clock, so the pressure shows up there first. We'll take what it exposes and apply it to companies with other kinds of owners. * **Cross-pollinated debate:** Operators compare what agentic finance already does in production (58% report automated covenant monitoring, 44% report AI-drafted board packages) against what their own governance can defend today. **🤝 Who Should Attend:** * **Enterprise Executives:** Leave with the measures a buyer or board will scrutinize, and an honest read on which ones you could produce this quarter. * **Founders & Builders:** See what sponsors and portfolio CFOs are buying, and where the 47% assembling AI tools case-by-case stall out before anything compounds. * **Product, Data, and Operations Leads:** Compare notes on the constraint everything else runs into. Poor data infrastructure ranked first among all barriers by a wide margin, ahead of talent, legacy systems, change management, and budget. Most of it arrives at close and gets fixed while the books are closing. **📬 The Prep:** This is a working session, not a lecture. Read the report [here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/17p8t4xEmwpztRe_gnLPGxqWDAlW9AbVG/view?usp=drive_link).
