• AAidan GomezAidan Gomez is a Canadian computer scientist, co-founder and CEO of Cohere, and one of the eight authors of the 2017 paper that introduced the Transformer architecture.
• AAlan TuringAlan Turing (1912–1954) was a British mathematician whose 1936 paper defined computation with an abstract machine. His 1950 paper proposed the imitation game, now called the Turing test, and he is counted among the founders of artificial intelligence.
• AAlec RadfordAlec Radford is a machine learning researcher who worked at OpenAI from 2016 to 2024. He was first author of the GPT-2, CLIP and Whisper papers, and lead author of the 2018 paper that introduced the GPT approach.
• AAli FarhadiAli Farhadi (born 1982) is a computer scientist and professor at the University of Washington who served as chief executive of the Allen Institute for AI from 2023 to 2026, a period that included fully open releases of the OLMo, Molmo and Tülu models.
• AAllen NewellAmerican computer scientist and psychologist who, with Herbert A. Simon and J. C. Shaw, built the first list-processing language and the earliest heuristic problem-solving programs, treating thought as computation.
• AAndreas BlattmannAndreas Blattmann is a researcher on generative image models, second author of the latent diffusion paper behind Stable Diffusion, co-author of the Stable Diffusion 3 paper, and a 2024 co-founder of Black Forest Labs, which released the FLUX.1 models.
• AAndrew BartoAndrew G. Barto is a computer scientist who helped establish reinforcement learning as a general framework and shared the 2024 ACM A.M. Turing Award with Richard Sutton.
• AAndrew Chi-Chih YaoAndrew Chi-Chih Yao is a computer scientist born in Shanghai who won the 2000 ACM A.M. Turing Award for fundamental contributions to the theory of computation, and later founded Tsinghua University's Yao Class and IIIS.
• AArthur SamuelAmerican electrical engineer who built one of the first checkers-playing programs and, in a 1959 paper, helped name the field now called machine learning.
• AAshish VaswaniAshish Vaswani is a computer scientist best known as the first-listed author of “Attention Is All You Need,” the 2017 paper that introduced the Transformer architecture. He also co-founded the AI companies Adept and Essential AI.
