Jonathan Xu

I'm the founder and CEO of Alljoined, where we decode thoughts from non-invasive brain recordings. I think most "impossible" technologies are just early, and that paradigms often change faster than people realize.

I grew up in Toronto and live in San Francisco. In high school I spent my weekends at 40+ hackathons, where I learned how to program. I studied Computer Science at the University of Waterloo, did ML research at Stanford under Stefano Ermon and David Lobell, and worked on neural decoding at NUS. I've published at CVPR, ICML, and NeurIPS.

A couple of operating beliefs: be honest with yourself, stay inspired, be grounded, follow your heart.

I like classical music, badminton, Asimov books, zazen, outer space, and interior design.
