E10 Ben Taylor, Co-Founder and Chief AI Officer at Ziff AI

Today’s guest on the show is Ben Taylor, co-founder and Chief
Data Officer at Ziff AI. Ben’s mission
is to further the boundaries of what is possible with data
science. His current project combines the power of genetic
programming with deep learning to automate network design and he
believes human expertise and creativity are being replaced by
powerful new methods.


Ben is best known for my machine learning work with the data
science community and with HireVue. Ben was Hirevue’s first data
scientist and was able to partner with engineering to build out
one of the first video interview prediction engines called
HireVue Insights. It has since seen fantastic use cases and
growth where large Fortune companies are dramatically reducing
time to hire from six weeks to just six days.
