What Boris is talking about

  • all about machine learning and neural networks
  • unmanned vehicles: why they are needed and how to make them right
  • how does Alice work and why is she so cheeky
  • artificial intelligence: when will we create it and can it enslave us
  • how to be a really good engineer and data scientist
  • how to manage a team in complex highly scientific projects when it is not clear what to do
  • how (skydiving) helps you fight fear, step out of your comfort zone, and achieve more in other areas of your life

And also Borya will answer any question that will be asked in the comments. to this post on instagram or in the comments below this post.

About format

A month ago we started a new project: instagram account, in which cool guys from IT go live and answer questions from viewers in their area of ​​expertise.

Classic interviews where only one person asks questions cannot turn into a full-fledged guide, they are limited by the interests of only the interviewer himself.

We dream of making a collection of interesting and full-fledged guides about all aspects of the life of an IT specialist in a year

These are internships, career growth, team management, learning new technologies, interviews, emigration and the rest.

We chose live broadcasts because this is the closest technological alternative to a tete-a-tete conversation - you can react to the speaker's answer and clarify the important things, as well as directly ask the most interesting thing for you personally.

Why not webinars

Webinars are the last century: an outside service, links to the entrance, mandatory registration, connection from a computer. We want to make knowledge free and as accessible as possible - here is the usual instagram in the hands, there comes a notification about the start of the broadcast. It's as easy as having a facetime call with a friend.

Will there be a record?

Yes, all recordings of the broadcasts are released on IGTV, and in a week on youtube. You can already see record or read the transcript of the broadcast with Ilona Papava on how to get an internship at Facebook and get an offer (Ilona went to the Valley twice for an internship and is now a Senior Software Engineer in the London office of Facebook)

How to ask a question so that the speaker answers accurately

The live stream will only take an hour.

Live stream will start on this instagram account May 18 (Monday) at 20:00 Moscow time.

How not to miss the broadcast

You can subscribe and enable push notifications only for a specific user.
