Descriptions:
Long before the current wave of large language models, one academic researcher was trying to give machines a sense of their own limitations. Zoubin Ghahramani has spent the last 30 years pioneering a type of intelligence built on the mathematics of uncertainty. Today, as a professor at Cambridge and VP of research at Google DeepMind, Zoubin finds himself at the heart of an interesting debate: will improving machine uncertainty be one of the missing pieces to ever improving AI?
