Alexandre Lebrun
A graduate of École Polytechnique and Télécom Paris, Lebrun has spent two decades building AI-first companies. He founded VirtuOz, a pioneer in customer-service chatbots, acquired by Nuance in 2012, then co-founded Wit.ai — a natural-language platform that made it simple for developers to build voice-enabled apps — acquired by Facebook in 2015. He went on to serve as Head of Engineering at Facebook AI Research (FAIR) for nearly four years before co-founding Nabla in 2018. The company’s ambient AI scribe now generates clinical notes from physician-patient conversations across 130+ healthcare organizations. In 2025, Yann LeCun tapped Lebrun to also serve as CEO of AMI (Advanced Machine Intelligence), a newly formed AI lab, signaling a bet that his blend of research engineering and serial entrepreneurship scales beyond healthcare.
