YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Yossi Matias is the head of Google Research. He joins Big Technology Podcast to discuss the company's research efforts in areas like cancer treatment and Quantum and to discuss the relationship between research and product. Tune in to hear how Google used LLMs to generate a cancer hypothesis validated in living cells, what a “13,000×” quantum result really means, and how the research product loop turns papers into products. We also cover whether AI can automate a researcher's job. This conversation was recorded in front of a live audience at Google's Mountain View headquarters.
