Wayland Zhang
I am an AI believer and software engineer. Studied at University of Toronto ('03-'07), major in Computer Science. Attended Geoff Hinton's class.
I teach modern AI concepts through videos [in Chinese] and surprisingly gained over 100k+ followers among Chinese AI practitioners. This motivated me to continue sharing knowledge and guiding more people in the AI field.
