How to Balance Vision and Timing with Naveen Rao of MosaicML

Armed with a PhD in computational neuroscience, Naveen Rao has
built not one, but two, AI companies at the forefront of his field.
In 2014, he started deep learning company Nervana Systems, which
was acquired by Intel. And in 2020, he started MosaicML to enable
developers to maintain full control over the AI models they build.
Just last year, Databricks acquired MosaicML in a $1.3 billion
dollar transaction. Naveen shares his framework for evaluating an
exit opportunity, how his parents' immigration to the United States
shaped his perspective on risk-taking, and his insights into the
plausibility of autonomous robots transcending science fiction.
