Everyone thinks I teach.
I don't teach.
I lead research.
Okay.
So you'll join an existing grant.
That's right.
And then your professional work was Google Brain and is now Meta.
That's right.
At Google Brain, this was like the early skunk works of the neural networks, and it became deep learning, and now it's called AI.
Maybe we'll get into some of that.
I'm not sure where you want to take the conversation.
But that was for about six years.
And then I joined Meta Reality Labs.
You've seen these glasses that they have.
Uh-huh.
The new version has this wristband and that wristband reads out your muscle signals.
It's basically like controlling a device just by gesturing or like writing.
That doesn't seem on prima facie that hard in that we know what signals are going to get sent to the messages to move the hands in some way.
Conceptually, it doesn't seem that abstract.
conceptually, if the signals are there, you can machine learn them and pull it out.
