The algorithm behind early versions of Siri, Google Translate, and Alexa? It wasn't invented by a tech giant. It was created by a master's student in the 1990s, rejected at first, then left to sleep quietly... until it changed the world. That student was Sepp Hochreiter, the inventor of LSTM, one of the most influential breakthroughs in AI. And now, he's back with TiRex, a time series foundation model that has outperformed others on Hugging Face time series leaderboard. It's fast, efficient, and built in Europe, where Sepp and his team at NXAI are betting on open source, smarter models, and AI that runs at the edge.In this episode, we explore how one of AI's pioneers is reshaping the future with fewer GPUs, smaller models, and a bold vision for European innovation.
