Siddharth Batra is a computer scientist, researcher, and entrepreneur who has authored several papers[1] in the area of artificial intelligence. Batra is currently the co-founder [2][3] of X1 Card a no annual fee credit card that has been dubbed “the smartest credit card ever made.” [4][5]
Biography[edit]
Batra obtained his B.S. from Jaypee Institute of Information Technology[6] and M.S. in computer science from Stanford University under the supervision of Andrew Ng.[7] At Stanford, Batra worked on the STAIR (Stanford Artificial Intelligence Robot) [8] where he wrote a thesis on High-accuracy 3d sensing for mobile manipulation[9] as well as a paper on energy disaggregation.[10] Batra, together with Ashutosh Saxena and Andrew Ng, invented a patented system for augmenting video content [11][12] and used it to create a video advertising company ZunaVision[13][14] which was funded by Stanford professor David Cheriton.[15][16]
In 2013, Batra joined Twitter and went on to become a Director of Engineering in the Ads team. In 2017, Batra co-founded Thrive Financial Inc.[17][18] which was later renamed to X1 Inc. after the launch of their credit card product. [19]
