Generally AI - Season 2 - Episode 6: The Godfathers of Programming and AI
In this podcast episode, Roland and Anthony discuss the Godfather of AI, Geoffrey Hinton, who developed pivotal algorithms like backpropagation, contributed to neural visualization with t-SNE, and inspired a resurgence in neural networks with AlexNet's success.
