– USA, CA –  Groq®, a generative artificial intelligence solutions company and the creator of the LPU™ Inference Engine announced the addition of Harvard Professor Youngme Moon (Ph.D.) to its Board of Directors.

“Youngme brings the broad marketing expertise to the Groq board of directors that is needed in a rapidly changing market, like AI,” said Founder and CEO, Jonathan Ross. “There are already several powerful incumbents in the AI space that take up a lot of airtime and mindshare, making it hard for the AI community to discover promising new entrants to the market. Professor Moon’s brand expertise and unique perspective on how emerging technologies impact culture will be invaluable in helping both the AI community and society at large understand the value Groq brings to AI as we transition from the Information Age to the Generative Age.”

In addition to Groq CEO and Founder Jonathan Ross and Professor Moon, the board includes Jay Zaveri of Social Capital, Ford Tamer of Francisco Partners, and Andy Rappaport of Skyline Public Works.
