That just kind of changed me. To this day, physics is still, you know, first love.

Learning is organic, learning is messy, learning is big data,

learning is reinforcement to, you know, trial and error.

It took me two years of agony.

It's hard to resist Stanford and Silicon Valley when AI was taking off.

Not a single university today in America can train a chat gp-gp-tep-tep-not even probably g-p-p-tep-treaty. Sweet. The quest for artificial intelligence has been for decades with the field really kicking off in the 1950s

each era was marked by unique breakthroughs and

despite the recent flourish of advancements the foundational work has long

been underway by a cast of characters dedicated to pushing this frontier.

One notable figure, some even referring to her as the grandmother of AI is Faye Faye Lee, a professor

of the Computer Science department at Stanford University and

co-director of Stanford's Human-centered AI Institute. And in today's episode we have

the pleasure of her joining Bio and Health founding partner

Vijay Ponde to discuss her journey through the years

from uprooting as a teenager from Chengdu China to Persepany

New Jersey and barely speaking English at the time all all the way to building ImageNet,

an instrumental project taking computer vision projects

from tens of thousands of images

to tens of millions.

Throughout the episode, you'll also hear many of Faye's very human stories, like running a

dry cleaning shop while she was at Princeton, to her mother's role in allowing her to pursue physics, all of which helps to shape her vision for the very technology that she helped bring to life.

Fay Faye also just released her new book, The World's I See, that dives even deeper into her
