Amazon is adding artificial intelligence visionary Andrew Ng to its board of directors. Ng is known for leading AI teams at the Chinese tech company Baidu and Google, where his team taught a computer system to recognize cats in YouTube videos without ever being taught what a cat was. In 2017, he founded the Palo Alto, California-based AI Fund, which invests in entrepreneurs building artificial intelligence companies. The Seattle company also said Thursday that Judy McGrath, a former CEO of MTV and current Amazon board member, won’t run for reelection.
