About me

I am currently the Executive Director of Research in SenseTime Group, and the GM of ADG Business Unit, in charge of the research, productization, and business of HUGE neural models, with a particular focus on large-scale AIGC and multi-modal models. Previously I obtain my PhD from MMLab, CUHK, supervised by Prof. Xiaogang Wang.
When I was young, I devoted myself to various cutting-edge AI research problems and published dozens of papers in top-tier conferences. However, with a deeper understanding of technology, I am now more focused on tackling problems that can truly advance the field and make AI serve all of humanity. Therefore, since 2020, I have not been concerned with the quantity of "research papers", and have instead formed a team of over 100 researchers and product developers. With over 4,000 GPUs at our disposal, we are committed to creating top-notch technology and products based on super HUGE NLP and CV models that can serve the public. Contact me if you are interested.
