Gaurav Bharaj

I am passionate about harnessing advances in multimodal generative AI to empower and enhance human lives.

I am the co-founder of Reality Defender. Previously, I was the Chief Science Officer at Flawless AI, VP of Research at AI Foundation and senior researcher at Technicolor R&I (now Interdigital R&I). I got my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Harvard University with Hanspeter Pfister and Masters from University of Pennsylvania. And worked at Max-Planck Institute of Informatics with Christian Theobalt.
