Searching for the ghost in the shell 🤖
It's been a fascinating journey observing the evolution of AI, particularly with the recent launch of OpenAI's o1. It's been just over a year and nine months since Andrej Karpathy's poetry test piqued my interest in generative AI. Since then I've been exploring the depths of AI's capabilities in various ways. This weekend, I decided to put o1-preview to the test in a way that blends creativity…
I recently had the incredible opportunity of leading my first machine learning meetup! The experience was both challenging and rewarding, paving the way for future growth in my career. Here are some key insights and takeaways from my first foray into the world of technical public speaking. Continue reading The post Leading my first machine learning meetup: An awesome milestone in my professional…
Walt Disney famously said, “All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them.” I can definitely say from recent experience that he was right! I’m thrilled to announce that I recently got accepted into a super-competitive Machine Learning Apprenticeship run by Founders and Coders. I started the program on 20th March and it truly feels like my dream is finally turning into reality.…
Foundation models are a new class of powerful AI systems which are having an unparalleled impact on both machine learning research and industrial applications. I recently attended the Exploring foundation models symposium hosted by The Alan Turing Institute. This event brought together prominent academics and practitioners to explore the promises, limitations and future directions of this rapidly…
It’s finally here! I recently published my poetry book Poetic Genesis: An Anthology of 52 AI Crafted Poems on Amazon. Generating all the poems took approximately two days. It was the ideation, curation and publication stages that actually took much longer. However, apart from the human time and energy cost, I’m glad to say $0 was spent to make this anthology. So how did I do it? Read on to find…
Welcome to chapter 6 of the machine learning scholar adventure. I've been hella busy levelling up my machine learning skills since the last edition and time has flashed by for me thanks to all the fun I've been having!

Welcome to another chapter of the machine learning scholar adventure. It's been a while since the last chapter update I posted but I'm so glad to be back on this exhilarating path! One thing I've come to realise is that progress is not linear. Continue reading The post Machine learning scholar adventure: Chapter 5 first appeared on Azuremis .
What is machine learning really? How does it relate to artifical intelligence? Why is ML such a radically different technology? Find the answers here! Continue reading The post A simple introduction to machine learning first appeared on Azuremis .
The fastai book is still my main focus since my last progress update on MLSA: Chapter 3. I gained further insight into the ethical implications of AI technology. This was my first time where I realised that just like any other technology, data based creations are just as likely to be misused in the same way as other technological developments. Continue reading The post Machine learning scholar…
The fastai book has been my main focus since my last progress update on MLSA: Chapter 2. I have also been supplementing working through the book with viewing the related online course videos. I really like the fastai book because the approach is based on top down learning where the emphasis is on using deep learning as soon as possible.
