Dan Ventura

Season 2 Episode 205 | 2m 32s

Does creativity require soul and passion? Meet Darci, a computer who thinks creatively.

When Dan Ventura saw his first computer in the eighth grade, it was love at first sight. He started teaching himself computer programming and never stopped. Now, as a professor in Brigham Young University’s Computer Science Department, what intrigues him most is exploring how computers can learn to think creatively – designing artificial intelligence systems that are robust and adaptable.
