Rob works as a lead machine learning engineer focusing on deep learning applications, primarily with language translation. His team works with the full pipeline of training, productionizing, and deploying machine learning applications. He is happy not only talking about theory and research but also the practicalities of model selection and designing products to meet user needs. He previously worked as a data scientist and has strong opinions about effective uses of data visualization and good UI design. He is only a little afraid of AI taking over everything.
