Dr. Eric Daimler is a leading authority in robotics and artificial intelligence with over 20 years of experience as an entrepreneur, investor, technologist, and policymaker. Eric served under the Obama Administration as a Presidential Innovation Fellow for AI and Robotics in the Executive Office of President, as the sole authority driving the agenda for U.S. leadership in research, commercialization, and public adoption of AI & Robotics.
Eric has incubated, built and led several technology companies recognized as pioneers in their fields ranging from software systems to statistical arbitrage. Currently, he serves on the boards of WelWaze and Petuum, the largest AI investment by Softbank’s Vision Fund. His newest venture, Conexus, is a groundbreaking solution for what is perhaps today’s biggest information technology problem — data deluge.
Eric’s extensive career spanning business, academics and policy give him a rare perspective on the next generation of AI. Eric sees clearly how information technology can dramatically improve our world. However, it demands our engagement. Neither a utopia nor dystopia is inevitable. What matters is how we shape and react to, its development.

As seen on
“Risk Group discusses ‘How Artificial Intelligence Is Transforming Business’ with Dr. Eric Daimler, Co-Founder Conexus, Partner Spinglass, Board Member of Petuum, Presidential Innovation Fellow during the Obama Administration based in the United States.”
“Your briefing on the charismatic foundational models in artificial intelligence obscured what aspect of AI is actually useful (‘The world that Bert built’, June 11th). The technologies you covered will provide little value in optimising energy production, securing the next generation of telecommunications infrastructure, or proving the safety of an aeroplane. These are the everyday problems on which we must today focus our efforts in applying AI. As a comparison to our being misled, we might count the years in which fully autonomous driving has been predicted to arrive soon.”
