Tris Warkentin — Product Manager
Product Management executive focused on the future of AI, leading new research products at Google DeepMind. I previously led the PM function for Google Brain, the company's top AI research lab and the birthplace of the Transformer. In that role, I named and launched Google Bard, and also led the launch of PaLM, Imagen, Parti, and many other breakthrough generative AI technologies. Prior to leading Brain PM, I led PM teams for TensorFlow, focusing on AI productionization and MLOps. During my first five years at Google, I spearheaded the integration of machine learning into Google Ads, focusing on targeting automation and overall ML-driven ads quality to create more than $10B in ARR growth for Google. I began my career in AI in 2001, when I joined a small start-up spun out of MIT Media Lab for Artificial Intelligence: iPhrase Technologies (later acquired by IBM). After catching the AI bug, I have dedicated most of the last 20 years to bridging the gap between cutting-edge AI research and real-world applications.
