# Links: cloudflare is a neolab

## Speaker

**Michelle Chen**, Group Product Manager, AI Platform, Cloudflare

- Site: [Michelle Chen - Cloudflare Blog](https://blog.cloudflare.com/author/michelle/)
  (her author page: the Clef, Clairic and Workers AI launch posts below)

The roster published no links for her, and no LinkedIn, X or GitHub profile
could be confirmed as hers.

## Company

**[Cloudflare Workers AI](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers-ai/)**: "Run
machine learning models, powered by serverless GPUs, on Cloudflare's global
network." (from the docs)

## Resources

- **Blog** · [Introducing Clef: our open-source decision models, and new RL fine-tuning platform](https://blog.cloudflare.com/clef-decision-models/)
  (Cloudflare, 2026-10-01, co-authored by Michelle Chen). The System One decision
  model the talk says was trained over a weekend (transcribed "CLUF").
- **Blog** · [Introducing Clairic, a new System One class of extraction models](https://blog.cloudflare.com/clairic-extraction-model/)
  (Cloudflare, 2026-10-19, co-authored by Michelle Chen). The extraction model
  that returns typed JSON from unstructured input (transcribed "Cleric", "Claire").
- **Blog** · [Powering the agents: Workers AI now runs large models, starting with Kimi K2.5](https://blog.cloudflare.com/workers-ai-large-models/)
  (Cloudflare, 2026-03-19, co-authored by Michelle Chen). The pivot to serving
  trillion-parameter models.
- **Product** · [Cloudflare Durable Objects docs](https://developers.cloudflare.com/durable-objects/).
  The stateful compute primitive agents run on ("durable objects, which are more
  stateful").
- **Product** · [Cloudflare Agents docs](https://developers.cloudflare.com/agents/).
  The "agent cloud" the talk's primitives add up to.

## Gaps

- No LinkedIn, X or GitHub profile verifiably hers (a common name; the roster
  lists none).
- "PyDurable" in the CI-triage demo was not identified.
- No official recording or slides found yet. The dossier rechecks every 6 hours
  during the event.
