Speaker Bio:
Dan Roberts is currently a Research Affiliate at the Center for Theoretical Physics at MIT, an Affiliate of the NSF AI Institute for Artificial Intelligence and Fundamental Interactions, and a Principal Researcher at Salesforce. Previously, he was Co-Founder and CTO of Diffeo, a collaborative AI company acquired by Salesforce, a research scientist at Facebook AI Research (FAIR) in NYC, and a Member of the School of Natural Sciences at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, NJ. Dan received a Ph.D. from MIT, funded by a Hertz Foundation Fellowship and the NDSEG, and he studied at Cambridge and Oxford as a Marshall Scholar. Dan's research has centered on the interplay between physics and computation, and previously he has focused on the relationship between black holes, quantum chaos, computational complexity, randomness, and how the laws of physics are related to fundamental limits of computation.
All presentations will be recorded and will available on the CAII website shortly after the presentation.
