Dec 9, 2023 at 18:02 comment added Arshak Aivazian @TimCampion Thanks for this comment! This is a really important clarification (and it helped me now).
Nov 14, 2023 at 5:30 comment added Tim Campion A big warning is in order: there is a standard notion of a finitely presentable object in a category. Later in the book, Lurie treats the generalization of this notion to $\infty$-categories, calling it a "compact" object. Beware that not every compact object in the $\infty$-category $Spaces$ of spaces is "finitely presentable" in the sense of 1.2.14.2, by the Wall finiteness obstruction. What is true is that every compact object in $Spaces$ is a retract of a "finitely presentable" object in the sense of 1.2.14.2.

Nov 10, 2023 at 18:06 comment added Connor Malin I'm no expert, but I believe a simplicial set presents an $\infty$-category $C$ if they are weakly equivalent in the Joyal model structure on simplicial sets. Similarly, a simplicial set will present an $\infty$-groupoid $X$ if they are weakly equivalent in the standard model structure on simplicial sets (i.e. the one that models homotopy types). From this one can see that $\infty$-groupoids with infinite homological dimension cannot be finite presented (meaning represented by a finite simplicial set).
