Guest bio:

Catherine Nelson is a data scientist and author of the upcoming O’Reilly book “Software Engineering for Data Scientists”. She is a Principal Data Scientist at SAP Concur, where she explores innovative ways to deliver production machine learning applications which improve a business traveler’s experience. Her key focus areas range from ML explainability and model analysis to privacy-preserving ML. She is also co-author of the O'Reilly publication “Building Machine Learning Pipelines", and she is an organizer for Seattle PyLadies, supporting women who code in Python. In her previous career as a geophysicist she studied ancient volcanoes and explored for oil in Greenland. Catherine has a PhD in geophysics from Durham University and a Masters of Earth Sciences from Oxford University.

The language of Machine Learning Mar 23, 2023

Meet Sharon Zhou, an adjunct faculty member at Stanford University and co-founder of Stealth Startup. Join us as we talk about the power and interconnectedness of language as we dive into generative AI models, stable diffusion, large language models, and learn how every problem – according to Sharon – is just a translation problem.

Check out Sharon’s startup here: https://goo.gle/3TENTJk

Guest bio: Sharon Zhou is currently an adjunct faculty member at Stanford University where she defended her PhD (in an impressive 3.5 years) on generative AI models, advised by Andrew Ng. She is also the co-founder of Stealth Startup, working on democratizing access and ease of use of AI by making it easier to program and customize large language models. She has a passion for teaching AI and is currently teaching 80,000 students about GANs, diffusion models and more on Coursera, and was an AI advisor to key AI policymakers in Washington D.C. Fun facts about Sharon: she was the first student in the history of Harvard University to major in Classics and Computer Science, and is featured in MIT Technology Review's 35 Under 35. To top that, she is also a poet.
