Summary
[edit]
| Description |
I first met him when he was a EE Professor and I knocked on his door and asked if I could be his Research Assistant (to look at neural networks on parallel compute architectures). He waited until I got my undergrad degree, and then agreed, and that's how I got my MSEE and started a PhD (well, just two quarters of that). Here are some of his comment on stage at our LP dinner yesterday: We have lost three innovation centers in the U.S. – Bell Labs, Xerox PARC and IBM Research. We need to grow another innovation center in America if we want to be world leaders in science and technology. Stanford is bidding to establish a campus in New York City, We need to transform how we educate people. The large lecture is no longer the preferred mode. We also have to drive down the cost of education. Our CS Department just offered three online courses as an experiment: Introduction to Artificial Intelligence, Introduction to Databases, and Machine Learning. We had 180,000 people enrolled. If you multiply that by the number of units, it exceeds everything taught on campus during the school year with 2000 teachers. (the colors are bit unusual because there was no spot light and the overhead lights were off. So I had to push it to ISO 6400 and f/1.4) |
