More than 500 million years ago, vision became the primary driving force of evolution's 'big bang', the Cambrian Explosion, which resulted in explosive speciation of the animal kingdom. 500 million years later, AI technology is at the verge of changing the landscape of how humans live, work, communicate,and shape our environment.

One thing ImageNet changed in the field of AI is suddenly people realized the thankless work of making a dataset was at the core of AI research.

AI is everywhere. It's not that big, scary thing in the future. AI is here with us.

I imagine a world in which AI is going to make us work more productively, live longer, and have cleaner energy.

Yes, we have prototyped cars that can drive by themselves, but without smart vision, they cannot really tell the difference between a crumpled paper bag on the road, which can be run over, and a rock that size, which should be avoided.
