I’m excited to share that I have been appointed as a board member of the Openmind Research Institute!

Co-founded by AI and reinforcement learning luminaries Rich Sutton, Randy Goebel and Joseph Modayil, Openmind is a Canadian non-profit focused on conducting fundamental AI research to better understand minds.

We believe the greatest advancements in AI are yet to come. Basic research is essential to understanding what is scientifically possible before pursuing the next generation of commercial and technological developments.

A key aspect of Openmind is its commitment to open research. Openmind places no intellectual property restrictions on its research, allowing everyone to contribute to and build upon this shared knowledge.

As a board member, I will leverage my decades-long experience in building, operating, and investing in AI companies to support Openmind’s mission. Supporting innovation is one of my life’s passions, and I am thrilled to accept this position and join a team dedicated to pioneering advancements in AI.
