Lex Fridman has hosted the Lex Fridman Podcast since 2018, drawing long-form interviews out of scientists, technologists, and public figures across disciplines that few other interviewers attempt. He works as a research scientist at MIT's Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems; a 2019 study he authored on driver attention during Tesla's semi-autonomous driving mode drew wide attention after Elon Musk praised it, though the study was not peer-reviewed and was criticized by AI researchers.
