About Us

What is GenAI Gurus?

GenAI Gurus is a global community for builders, researchers, and leaders exploring applied Generative AI through practical talks and open discussion. We host expert sessions and community conversations focused on real-world GenAI applications, responsible adoption, and cross-disciplinary learning.

Technical depth

Hands-on architecture reviews, model fine-tuning, RAG systems, agent frameworks, and production deployment patterns.

Strategic AI leadership

How organizations evaluate, adopt, and scale AI initiatives beyond proof-of-concept into real business value.

Responsible AI

Red-teaming, guardrails, bias mitigation, and governance frameworks that work in practice — not just in theory.

GenAI Gurus started in June 2023 as a small Meetup group for people who wanted to go deeper than surface-level AI hype. Since then, the community has grown to over 1,500 members and 50+ events, attracting speakers from leading companies and research institutions.
