Adam Cheyer might very well be the go-to person when it comes to the advancement of consumer experiences and business models in the AI and technology environment. The co-founder and VP Engineering of Viv labs, his focus was on simplifying the world by means of intelligence interfaces. The startup was taken over by Samsung in 2016.

Before his Viv experience, Adam Cheyer co-founded Siri, where he was VP Engineering. The company’s purpose was to redesign the consumer mobile experience. After the company was acquired by Apple, Adam stayed on and became a Director of Engineering in the iPhone/iOS group. Adam is also a co-founder of Sentient Technologies and a founding member and advisor of Change.org – a social network that works for a positive social change.

Before Siri, however, Adam worked in SRI’s Artificial Intelligence Center as Program Director. He was the Chief Architect of the CALO/PAL project, creating a next-generation cognitive assistant that learns and improves itself without code changes. He and his team were tasked, at the time, to integrate new AI technologies from 25 different research institutions, universities, and companies, into a system that would provide user value and pass a series of SAT-similar tests on an annual basis.

The AI specialist was also Dejima’s VP of Engineering. This company was later acquired by Sybase. His responsibilities included managing the engineering staff, technology, and strategy as well as guiding the company’s product development in the mobile field. His sting as VP of Engineering at Verticalnet, which was later bought over by BravoSolution, saw Adam responsible for the development of products for consortium marketplaces, private markets, and different enterprises.

Because of his more than fifteen years’ experience in different executive, engineering, and research roles, Adam Cheyer is considered a pioneer in the field of distributed computing, intelligent agents, and advanced user interfaces. He is also the author of 59 peer-reviewed publications and has over twenty issued patents under his belt. Adam has also been a participant in numerous Program Committees and Advisory Boards.

  • “Adam is an outstanding researcher, manager, and software architect. It has been a great privilege to work with him on the PAL/CALO project. He combines extraordinary system design and engineering skills with the ability to see beyond the current deadlines to conceive completely novel approaches to system design. When other groups develop new technologies, he can see how to integrate and apply them in ways that significantly improve the end-user experience. His excellent people skills have been critical to the success of several of our joint efforts.”
