Let's start with Fei-Fei Li's story; in 2000s
She and Demis Hassabis on either side of atlantic (he at imperial co;lege london after starting up a games company after first in computer science at queens cambridge, she at caltech after undergrad at princeton) were doing doctorates upsetting the neuroscience academic applecart which had divorced itself from computing in spite of von neumann's last booklet Computer & The Brain (1956)
meanwhile Jensen Huang and Steve Jobs Pixar had started coding pixels instead of binary in year 10 of startup nvidia - this made sense for pixar movies and games renderers around Jensen but it also discovered ai biggest breakthrough - changing radiology ai use of mri data - machines with billion times more maths memory than humans are very brilliant at deep pattern maths - this started with radiology, became every hospital and drug discovery future of ai (see eg deep mind open sourcing 250 million proteins) and coming of every nanoscience related to einstein's 1905 science crisis e=mcsquared
one wonders where the world would be now if steve jobs had not been lost to cancer in early 2010s nonetheless his 2000s merit being celebrated as that decades greatest- before starting to code pixels with jensen he had staged 65th birthday party in the valley for fazle abed whose brac platform in bangladesh had celebrated how women empowerment with oral rehydration and other life saving intelligences increased life expected of billion rural asians - steve and his wife asked fazle to make a birthday wish; he said i want to start a university ; in bangladesh it will take time to extend our world class health college at undergraduate level to other disciplines but we can start world female graduate partnerships around missing research ideas that village telephones are inspiring all my end-poverty partners to identify; steve started discussing at stanfird all the missing solutions graduates could connect if they went beyond siloised alumni networks - beginning with his own case as he had found 1 year of his undergrad degree to slow to keep up with his innovative 1980s mind which launched apple mackintosh personal computing
steve started putting a university in a mobile phone so by 2009 when fei fei li settled in stanford and demis hassabis made his first visit sponsored by uk's roya; society of neuroscience, jensen's family was ready to lunch stanford;s deep learning lab at the engineeringh quad and bet the futire of nvidia and taiwan chip design on intelligence engineer architecture/partners networks and platforms
in 2012 fei fei annual global competition imagemet with its 20 million data test proved that those working on neural algorithms alexnet (neumann s last recommendation before his death in early 1957 could indeed train machines in any of the 65 human senses
so what happened next is peculiar?
everyone in silicon valley with big bucks and big comouting power chased demis hassabis startup with google winning deep mind
google musk and jensen all started designing robotics into self driving cars - for musk this could be triple win (worlds best electrivc vehicles, stay in game of battery innovation, be at start of last mile humanoids -)
jensen and melinda gates sponsored feifei li to start an education foundation ai4all which melinda and feifei presnted at geneva itu 2017 as way to connect ai with scaling community actions of every sdg as well as cekebrating females productivity and family loving energies
but back in usa media men were starting to invest everything in chats; feifei went to congress and recommended every nation start up sovereign ai investments but all the while the chats got the money leaving community action ai solutions out in the cold especially as cpvid came and closed communities first several years - li helped stanfird launch humansai and wrote a best seller worlds i see but these days feifei li has gone over to physical ai needed for robots rtahre than have to wrestle with antisobial media and all that - see worldai
and what of the other 15 women who have made intelligence so communally human and values so emotionally intelligent - come back sooon
jenson and melinda gates sponsored feifei li ediucation foundation ai4all bu
