Join us for a colloquium on the rapidly developing field of Artificial Intelligence given by alum Gavin Hall today (Oct. 25) at 2:30 p.m in G09 in White Hall on the Downtown Campus. Hall’s talk is titled First Principles AI at Tesla.

Hall leads AI Research and Development at Tesla Gigafactory 1, where research projects focus on the application of machine learning rooted optimal control, computer vision, and predictive analytics algorithms to infrastructure and manufacturing systems. He has previously worked at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory. He received B.S. degrees in Mathematics, Mechanical Engineering and Physics from WVU, and an M.S. in Mechanical Engineering from MIT, where his research in robotics led to an autonomous delivery and ride-sharing startup in Singapore.
