Humans of AI: Stories, Not Stats is an interview series with AI researchers to get to know them better as people. We don't talk about AI or their work or the stats of their life like what college they went to. They share what they think about, what they are insecure about, what they get excited about. They share the stories of their day-to-day life.

Videos of these interviews are available at humanstories.ai.

The host is Devi Parikh, an Associate Professor in the School of Interactive Computing at Georgia Tech and a Research Scientist at Facebook AI Research (FAIR). Find out more about her at her homepage or follow her on Twitter.
