Shyam Sankar
Shyam Sankar Biography
Shyam Sankar is Chief Technology Officer at Palantir Technologies, a secretive Silicon Valley company where he oversees deployments of the company's core technology, which helps law enforcement teams and corporations analyze giant, unrelated databases for clues to potential ... anything. Palantir's technologies have been used to find missing children, to detect banking fraud, and to uncover the Shadow Network, a cyber-spy ring that hacked the Dalai Lama's email.
An advocate of human-computer symbiosis, Sankar thinks deeply about the place where human and machine intelligence meet. While artificial intelligence is the dominant paradigm, he is an advocate of JCR Licklider's "intelligence augmentation" approach, where algorithms and brains work together to solve problems.
Sankar received his BS from Cornell University in electrical and computer engineering and his MS from Stanford University in management science and engineering. He serves as Chairman of the Board at Gingko Bioworks.
