Opening a new chapter of my work in AI
Wow, I'm amazed at Andrew's list of accomplishments. I mean any one of these would be a career capstone for most people<p>- Stanford Professor<p>- Founding lead of the Google Brain project<p>- Author of one of the most famous and loved MOOC's<p>- Head of AI for Baidu, built up the AI team in both China and the US.<p>- Founder of Coursera<p>And I see from wikipedia that he and I are roughly the same age :(<p>Engineers are often seen as a cost center for most businesses, which means you'll eventually hit a compensation ceiling If you want to elevate yourself into one of the engineers you hear about that is able to break through the compensation ceiling then the below is one of the best ways to do so.....<p>> My team birthed one new business unit per year each of the last two years<p>If you can directly tie yourself to a Pnl then you'll always have more options than someone who is considered a cost center.<p>I hope that what ever he does, he takes some time of first if he needs it. I'd hate for someone like this to get burnt out.
