Geoffrey Hinton, a British-Canadian scientist, quit Google after a ten year tenure to alert people about the dangers of AI. He is taken seriously since he is considered one of ‘godfathers of AI’. He developed along with LeCun and Bengio ‘a neural network’. He received 2018 Turing Award for this. It is a mathematical concept that makes it easy to extract patterns from very, very, large datasets of human language. In short, you can say that generative AI models have as their foundation the ‘neural network’. Geoffrey Hinton’s contributions of more than 200 peer-reviewed research papers make it usable.
