Hey, I'm Kosmas, an AI Engineer passionate about open-source NLP and deep learning projects. My current focus is on increasing the safety, efficiency, and usefulness of generative AI models through a variety of techniques.

About me

Iā€™m a 25-year-old software engineer with a passion for Artificial Intelligence. My journey began at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, where I received my M.Eng. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering. I am currently working as an Artificial Intelligence Engineer at saas.group.

My favorite part of programming is the problem-solving aspect. I enjoy the sense of accomplishment of finally solving a problem. During my studies, I gained experience in Python, C/C++, SQL, and Matlab while working on several projects.

Currently, my main focus is on developing and improving generative AI models in the Natural Language Processing (NLP) area. I am primarily interested in text production, summarization, and image-to-text recognition. In addition, sometimes I work on computer vision projects, including object detection and image classification.

In my spare moments, I enjoy playing video games, playing football, and learning new skills. Specifically, in the last few months, I started learning video editing, and I can't wait to finish my next travel vlog. Until then, grab some popcorn and check out my most recent video from Iceland on my YouTube channel.

I created this website to share my thoughts and connect with people. Feel free to reach out to me on LinkedIn or via email.
