Ilya Sutskever, a Canadian computer scientist, and co-founder and research director of OpenAI, a non-profit AI research company. Before, he was research scientist at Google Brain, and co-founded DNNresearch. He was postdoc at Stanford University with Andrew Ng's group, and received his M.Sc. in 2007 and his Ph.D. in 2013 from University of Toronto, working with Geoffrey Hinton. His research interests include machine learning and neural networks, in particular deep learning with convolutional neural networks applied to machine translation, voice and image recognition, and also to the game of Go.
