Tomáš Mikolov is a Czech computer scientist working in the field of machine learning. He is currently a Research Scientist at Czech Institute of Informatics, Robotics and Cybernetics.[1]

Career[]

Mikolov obtained his PhD in Computer Science from Brno University of Technology for his work on recurrent neural network-based language models.[2][3] He is the author of the original Word2vec paper[4] and is an author on the FastText architecture.[5][6]

Prior to joining Facebook in 2014, Mikolov worked as a visiting researcher at Johns Hopkins University, Université de Montréal, Microsoft and Google.[citation needed] He left Facebook at some time in 2019/2020 to join the CIIRC.[7]

Mikolov has argued that humanity might be at a greater existential risk if an artificial general intelligence is not developed.[8]
