While many consider AI a new technology, Young and Yoav discuss how the technology’s origins lie in the 80’s before we moved into an “AI winter” in the 90’s. Since the AI winter, AI has made great strides from Machine Learning to Natural Language Processing. The latter being the technology implemented by Yoav & AI21 Labs to power their solutions – Wordtune & Wordtune Read. Young, an avid user of both, and Yoav discuss the differences and nuances between Wordtune and Grammarly before discussing the future of AI technology – neuro-symbolic AI. Like HARMAN and our Inspired initiatives, Yoav is a firm believer in helping more of the population pursue careers in STEM. The pair finished their discussion with WeCode, a nonprofit initiative to train high-quality programmers from disadvantaged populations, and Yoav’s academic career.
