摘要:
Dr. Kai Zhang will share his journey across three interconnected domains: astrophysics, customer-focused AI, and the rise of AI-augmented research. With experience spanning large-scale sky surveys (SDSS, MaNGA, DESI) and industrial roles at Didi and Amazon, Dr. Zhang offers a unique perspective on applying an “AI mindset” across disciplines.Topics include:Astrophysics: How regression and classification techniques are used in astronomy to solve problems such as redshift estimation and galaxy classification—offering a natural foundation for machine learning thinking.Customers: How ML and foundation models are applied in recommendation systems and user behavior prediction, with insights into handling bias, evaluation, and real-world constraints.10X Researcher: How AI agents like LLMs can assist with literature review, coding, modeling, and writing—empowering researchers to dramatically increase their speed and effectiveness.
