AI HQ: Character.AI CEO Noam Shazeer

We’ve launched something new. “AI HQ” is an Axios HQ original series that takes you to the heart of the AI revolution — and the implications it’ll have on society, industry, communication, and our future.

• Each episode will introduce you to a titan or trailblazer of AI, the folks whose names you may — or may not — know, but the ones who are shaping the most transformative technology of our time.

In our first conversation you meet Noam Shazeer, Character.AI’s Co-founder. He helped build the “T” in “GPT” and worked on industry-changing projects like LaMDA at Google. Now he’s here to talk about Character.AI, super intelligence, and what’s on the horizon for AI.

Your two hosts for every episode:

• Dylan Pearce, a venture capitalist focused on AI.
• Roy Schwartz, the CEO of Axios HQ – an AI-powered internal communication software.
