Personal

I spend my time learning about AI and Physics.

I write songs and play guitar and piano which i post on Youtube channel. I have performed my songs in public, ran half-marathons and love trekking.

Advice/Quotes that i keep in mind

  • Iteratively take on concrete projects and accomplish them depth wise, learning “on demand” (i.e don’t learn bottom-up breadth wise) - Andrej Karpathy
  • We tend to overestimate the effect of a technology in the short run and underestimate the effect in the long run. - Roy Amara
  • Problems are inevitable. Problems are soluble. - David Deutsch

  • Curiosity, rigour, slightly obsessional perfectionism, being able to identify important questions. To be a good scientist you have to indulge in a degree of lateral or creative thinking, in terms of constructing new questions. I normally say that a mark of a good scientist is the quality of questions they ask. So that would be the hallmark of a good scientist for me: asking questions that no-one has asked before.
