Jing Huang, PhD

I lead the development of LLM-based conversational AI technologies for search, recommendation, and advertising, driving innovative product delivery and strategic management. Under my leadership, teams are advancing state-of-the-art conversational AI by enhancing human-machine interactions with deeper context understanding, commonsense reasoning, and personalization, while pioneering multi-modal generative AI solutions using large language models. I oversee product design and delivery, impacting millions of users globally. In my prior role as Senior Director at JD AI Research and Platforms (JD.com), I spearheaded critical AI initiatives on speech, NLP and knowledge graphs. With over 20 years of extensive R&D experience, I have led groundbreaking projects spanning multi-modal content generation, natural language processing, including foundation models/LLMs, conversational AI, knowledge graph and recommendation systems, speech recognition, and advanced deep learning architectures (GNNs and DNNs), showcasing my technological leadership and product-focused management expertise.

I serve in the IEEE SPS Speech and Language Processing Technical Committee. I am also an AE for IEEE/ACM Transactions on Audio, Speech and Language Processing, from 2021-2024.
