Lena Hall builds AI systems that work in the real world. As Senior Director of Developers and AI at Akamai, she figures out how to integrate language models into complex software pipelines. She previously ran developer experience and data advocacy teams at AWS and Microsoft.
Rather than sticking to screen-based software, she frequently explores embodied AI. Her work tackles the latency challenges of connecting logical reasoning to physical hardware and open-source robotics. She documents practical engineering setups on her YouTube channel.
