Daphne Koller, a leading artificial intelligence scientist, has left her role at Alphabet Inc.’s Calico after less than two years at the medical research lab focused on aging.
Google formed Calico in 2013 with the edict to find ways to extend human life, arguably the search giant’s most audacious endeavor outside of the internet. In August 2016, Calico recruited Koller as its first chief computing officer. She was hired to lead what Calico calls its "computational biology" efforts -- applying machine learning data-analysis tools to medical information.
