tldr: cloud infra at work, robot learning and gpu stuff at home
I’m a software engineer by trade.
My objective: make personal computing -- e.g. household robotics, digital assistants -- more useful, ubiquitous and free (as in freedom). This is a long-term goal and I don't know what path it will take, so I am always open to chat about any opportunities that may be tangentially related. Feel free to contact me@gautamsharda.com!
Relevant research / technical areas: robot learning, vision-language-action models, video-action models, world models, GPU programming, ML compilers, & hardware/software co-design.
Additional areas: general deep & reinforcement learning, robot design and manufacturing, neural network interpretability, PSI, non-gradient based methods, evolutionary algorithms, top-down program synthesis, automatic theorem proving.
"This is a long term, this is an infinite game. There is no 2 min, no end of quarter, there is no such thing." Forthrightness, substance, & depth.
