In 2017, the introduction of transformers into feed-forward neural networks enabled computers to achieve human-level performance on a range of language tasks.
In this talk, we will describe some of the theory behind these systems, and explain how it can be applied to search and information retrieval problems.
Amin Ahmad is cofounder and CEO of ZIR AI, which provides a cloud platform for semantic search. Previously he led development of neural retrieval systems at Google Research, and successfully deployed them into some of Google largest products and divisions, including Videos, Support, News, and Cloud.
