Ben Lorica is a machine learning researcher, media entrepreneur, and conference architect who spent over a decade as Chief Data Scientist at O'Reilly Media before launching Gradient Flow, his independent newsletter and research platform that Coursera ranked among the top 10 sites for data scientists. Known for the @bigdata Twitter handle he registered before 'big data' was a thing, he chairs The AI Conference, the AI Agent Conference, Ray Summit, NLP Summit, and Data+AI Summit while hosting The Data Exchange - a 342-episode podcast in the top 0.5% globally. He coined the PARK Stack (PyTorch, AI Frontier Models, Ray, Kubernetes) as the production AI infrastructure standard for the current era.
