The Master

Lijun Liu

Born in Shanghai, now based in Tokyo, and currently working at Microsoft. I move constantly between AI and the people who invest in it, use it, build it, and deploy it. I have also visited 16 countries and regions, learning about their cultures and histories, and am still exploring.

I run RoundTable AI Lab as an independent space — it does not represent any company or brand position, and everything is based on my own real experience and discussed on its own merits. The round table itself has no head seat. Developers, business professionals, researchers, and entrepreneurs — no matter your field, there is a seat for you here, and your perspectives, discussion, and collaboration are welcome.

The name comes from the Knights of the Round Table — not because they were heroes, but because they sat as equals. That spirit runs through everything here: honest analysis, open sharing, and growing together around the same ideals.
