Silicon Valley Is Pricing Academics Out of AI Research Stanford University's Fei-Fei Li, an ACM Fellow known as the "godmother of AI," pressed President Joe Biden, following his State of the Union address, to fund a national warehouse of computing power and datasets to ensure the nation's leading AI researchers can keep pace with big tech firms. Said Li, "The public sector is now significantly lagging in resources and talent compared to that of industry. This will have profound consequences because industry is focused on developing technology that is profit-driven, whereas public sector AI goals are focused on creating public goods.".
