Why Virtual TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
As AI is still a field that remains largely in academia, I believe the most novel and interesting applications of AI tech will be best experienced in companies at Silicon Valley. As someone passionate about AI/ML, I would love to visit Silicon Valley to see how exactly these companies are bridging the current gap between academia and business to create value for society.
- Where would you like to visit?
Silicon Valley: Google, Meta, Apple, People.ai, SoundHound, Observe.ai
Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
Companies researching new ways of leveraging AI/ML in the product and process innovation.
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
In the very long run, I hope to start an artificial intelligence firm that applies machine learning algorithms in different fields, overall helping traditional industries find new solutions in solving problems.
