Ashish Vaswani

In this course

Ashish Vaswani is a Google Brain researcher and lead author of "Attention Is All You Need," the foundational 2017 paper introducing the Transformer architecture that became the basis for modern large language models and contemporary AI systems. His work is cited in this course as central to understanding the technical substrate upon which contemporary AI systems—and their social implications—are built, appearing here as part of discussions tracing how architectural innovations in machine learning have enabled both capability advances and new forms of computational power that merit critical examination.
