Ilya Sutskever FRS (born 8 December 1986) is a Canadian-Israeli-Russian computer scientist who specializes in machine learning.[1]

Sutskever has made several major contributions to the field of deep learning.[7][8][9] He is notably the co-inventor, with Alex Krizhevsky and Geoffrey Hinton, of AlexNet, a convolutional neural network.[10]

Sutskever co-founded and is a former chief scientist at OpenAI.[11] In 2023, he was one of the members of OpenAI's board who fired CEO Sam Altman; Altman returned a week later, and Sutskever stepped down from the board. In June 2024, Sutskever co-founded the company Safe Superintelligence with Daniel Gross and Daniel Levy.[12][13]
