In the premiere of the Intrepid Growth Partners’ podcast, we meet with Rae Jeong, the CEO of Maneva AI, a Toronto-based company whose mission is to use artificial intelligence to make factories autonomous—completely run, maintained and improved by machine-learning algorithms and manufacturing robots.
Rae joins our panel of experts:
Ajay Agrawal, co-founder and partner, Intrepid Growth Partners
Richard Sutton, pioneer of reinforcement learning and professor, University of Alberta
Sendhil Mullainathan, MacArthur Genius grant recipient and professor, MIT
Niamh Gavin, Applied AI scientist, CEO, Emergent Platforms
“The ambition that we have… is to leverage some of the work that [Derby Mill host Richard Sutton] pioneered in reinforcement learning,” says Jeong, who foresees a future with zero workforce injuries and where the cost of production is simply the cost of energy.
