Summary
David Gaddy is a research scientist at Google with 12 years of experience applying machine learning to natural language and speech problems. He completed a PhD at UC Berkeley under Dan Klein, working on semantic parsing, grounded instruction following, syntactic parsing, and novel speech synthesis from biosignals. His background blends rigorous academic research with industry internships at Facebook AI and practical engineering experience dating back to MIT and early roles at Diffeo and Charles River Analytics. At Google he turns core NLP advances into scalable research and prototypes, drawing on a rare combination of linguistic insight and signal-processing know-how. Based in Mountain View, he is comfortable straddling experiments and production-ready systems, and has demonstrated a consistent interest in multimodal language-speech interfaces that go beyond standard text pipelines.
