Ilya Sutskever — Education: PhD in Machine Learning, University of Toronto (advisor: Geoffrey Hinton)
The source directly confirms all key elements of the claim: (1) PhD from University of Toronto in 2013, (2) advisor was Geoffrey Hinton, (3) BSc and MSc from University of Toronto as well. The only minor discrepancy is that the source specifies the PhD was in 'computer science' rather than 'machine learning', but this is a field designation difference and the source confirms the substance of the claim. The source text explicitly states these facts in the 'Early life and education' section.
