Francois Chesnay
My journey into Artificial Intelligence began in the mid-80s till the late 90s, with a pause of 15 years. It reignited in 2015 when AI was used to play Atari games, demonstrating significant advancements in deep learning, and ultimately leading me to complete Stanford’s Artificial Intelligence Graduate Certificate Program.
Prior to this, I earned an MBA from the University of Chicago-Booth, a Master’s from the London School of Economics and enjoyed a career in structured finance, venture capital, and corporate restructuring.
As a course facilitator for XCS221 Artificial Intelligence: Principles and Techniques and XCS224N Natural Language Processing with Deep Learning at Stanford’s Engineering Center for Global & Online Education, I support global learners in AI. I also serve as a non-executive director, advise on AI and strategy, and mentor startup founders.
