Gagandeep Reehal, is co-founder & CEO of Minus Zero, an autonomous vehicle startup pioneering a groundbreaking AI approach aimed at solving autonomous driving using only cameras.

Closely working at an intuitive intersection of AI & cognitive computing from the last 4 years, he had always been intrigued by neuronal computations inside the human brain contributing to attention, perception, episodic memory, and predictive decision-making.

With the problem of autonomous driving where current AI paradigms fail due to inability to handle real-world complexity, unlike the human mind, he knew the big gap that they could solve when he co-founded Minus Zero in 2021 with high-school batchmate, Gursimran.

Getting his first desktop and internet connection at age of 10 had opened up a whole new world of learning for him – robotics, AI, etc. Though a final year engineering undergrad currently, traditional education has never been a limiting factor. He believes that most complicated problems can be solved elegantly by breaking it down to right sub-problems, and reasoning from first principles.

He has mentored/judged major developer events worldwide, and has spoken at multiple conferences and major institutions around AI & robotics. 

Beyond Minus Zero, you would often find him reading compelling fiction or maybe writing poetry.
He has three book publications to his credit
