TechBytes with Vanya Cohen, Machine Learning Engineer at Luminoso

Growing up in Seattle, I was exposed to tech at a pretty young age. Most of my friends' parents worked for Microsoft. I spent a lot of my free time working on little coding projects, and even started my own business developing Video game mods in high school. Movies like 2001: A Space Odyssey captured my imagination, and gave me a sense that AI was going to be an important part of the future, even if it seemed distant at the time. But I really wanted to get involved. In my Senior year of High School, I took an AI summer course at Stanford.
