• Noam Shazeer
  • Google colleague, Daniel De Freitas
• In 2017, Shazeer published a paper with seven other Google researchers called “Attention is All You Need,” detailing a computer system that could reliably predict the next word in a sequence when prompted by humans. It became the underpinning of the generative AI technology that followed.
• Shazeer and De Freitas quit Google in 2021 to launch Character
• “The Aarthi and Sriram Show” podcast
• Google co-founder Sergey Brin played a key role in the deal to bring Shazeer back
