William Falcon

Today I am joined by William Falcon, CEO of Grid AI, which is a tool to help data scientists train AI, allowing them to scale their efforts by running hundreds of trials at once.

William Falcon is the creator of the popular open-source project PyTorch Lightning, and the recently announced Grid.ai. William created Lightning while doing his Ph.D. at NYU and as a Ph.D. researcher at Facebook AI; Lightning allows users to scale models without the boilerplate and Grid enables large-scale training on the cloud.

Previously he co-founded the now acquired NextGenVest and spent time at Goldman Sachs.
His Ph.D. (currently on leave to focus on Lightning), is funded by Google Deepmind and NSF Foundation. His research interest is in unsupervised learning and the intersection of AI and neuroscience.

William is a native of Venezuela and holds a BA from Columbia University in Computer Science and Statistics, with a minor in Math.

Register for the next Astor Perkins Quarterly Event.
