The common thread across the three projects is human level automation using large data, deep learning, reinforcement learning, and subject matter knowledge and customization. The second part of the talk will focus on the interplay of industry and academia in the age of LLMs and some thoughts on AI technology in education, and in augmenting the work of future scientists and engineers.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u003C\/strong\u003E Guy Lebanon is a director at Google where he works on ensuring the security, privacy, trust, and safety of mobile apps on Android, the world\u0027s most popular operating system.
