Demis has such a buddha-like joy emanating from him, I loved seeing it in this conversation and from such brilliant developer of amazing technology. Great interview.
really appreciate your tech videos especially in this fast moving space of technology. It helps us keep up with the latest technologies especially related to AI. These kind of podcasts once in a while are refreshing as well as useful to an AI/ML engineer like myself. REALLY APPRECIATED.:yougotthis:
This was one of the best podcasts HUGE* has done on tech and AI. Hassabis seems like a genuine human that is working at the forefront. I know that the last question could've had a canned answer, but his answer about wanting to help humanity felt more real than other leaders in tech. Also, the Jenga game at the end was a nice capstone.
the fact that this man prioritized sharding data over keeping it to himself, and creating a system of expensive requests that would stretch the 1-year data gathering over decades shows what a golden heart and empathic mind he has. normal business would make millions at the expense of any of that shared data. I don't want to start singing kumbayaa, but if more smart and powerfull people were like this, we would live in a utopia tbh...
It takes a brilliant mind to properly interview another brilliant mind. I think that's what we just witnessed here. I don't typically watch videos of this length, and this one had me hooked. Well done, both of you.
I love that the CEO of one of the most important tech companies in the world didnt mention anything to do with that job for the first 20 minutes.
Now thats a guy with depth - exactly the type of leader we need more of.
Same goes for the interview format :)
I not only admire Dr. Demis Hassabis, but I also admire the interviewer's capacity to ask questions in line with the intelligence of Demis Hassabis. I felt like she was reading my mind. Every time Dr. Hassabis was telling something, my next question that came to mind was literally asked from her afterward, creating an explanation that ties together how each problem and breakthrough ties together one after the other following an amazing chain of thought. This is one of the most brilliant and beautiful interviews I have watched ever.
I wish more people had the "Wait we can compute all the proteins in a few months? Why don't we just do that? Let's do it" attitude. Is a problem really "solved" if it's behind a paywall or a hard to navigate advanced system with waiting lines? We "solved" diabetes, but people still die because insulin in the US is a scam, so it's not really solved.
But we did solve protein folding. You can just go and look it up. Demis is a hero, I can't wait to see what he cooks up next.
You can tell how passionate he is about these things. Probably a really refreshing interview for him. Love these kind of interviews.
