Yu Liu

Yu Liu is the founder of Vivix, a startup building next-generation real-time interactive multimodal models, which he established in late 2024 after leaving SenseTime . He joined SenseTime at age 20, abandoning a PhD offer with visa already in hand to join the then year-old company , and by 26 became one of its youngest business-unit general managers . During his roughly eight years at SenseTime, he led a foundational research team of roughly 100 people with 4,000+ GPUs, making him one of fewer than five people there with both algorithm and project experience in vision . His move into real-time interactive models was, per Monolith砺思资本, "a path almost no one believed in" at the time .
