Understanding the Answer
Let's break down why this is correct
Answer
The Transformer was introduced in the 2017 paper “Attention Is All You Need. ” The key people who wrote that paper were Ashish Vaswani, Noam Shazeer, Niki Parmar, Jakob Uszkoreit, and Lukasz Kaiser. They designed the self‑attention mechanism and built the encoder‑decoder architecture that replaced recurrent layers. For example, Vaswani’s team showed that a stack of self‑attention layers could translate sentences faster and with fewer parameters than earlier models. These five researchers are the main contributors to the Transformer’s development.
Detailed Explanation
Ashish Vaswani wrote the Transformer paper and helped design the attention mechanism that lets the model focus on important words. Other options are incorrect because Geoffrey Hinton is known for deep learning, but he did not write the Transformer paper; Noam Shazeer helped write the Transformer paper, but if we say he is wrong, the mistake is thinking he didn't contribute.
