Hey all, I’m Morgan, I’m an ML Engineer on the W&B Growth Team, based in Dublin, Ireland. Happiest when training NLP models or sea swimming

Looking forward to hanging out more here!

[stacey]

Hi folks! I’m Stacey, and I’m a deep learning engineer at W&B, where I work on improving visualization, explainability, reproducibility, and collaboration. Would especially love to chat about any machine learning projects in climate/sustainability or applied AI safety/fairness/bias —and any W&B features which would help support these efforts.

• Berkeley, CA
• W&B by day, and a bunch of side projects around the climate crisis, AI safety & alignment, community/art co-creation, etc.
• I’ve been doing ML for over a decade / since before it got cool in 2012. Still so much to learn!
• browsers / vim

Hellooo!

I’m Ruchi, a Dev Expert at W&B

I guess I’m a little late here, but it feels great to see so many people active on this forum!

- India

- I will be starting my Master’s program at Carnegie Mellon University early next week.
Understandably, I was on a brief hiatus so that I could start afresh
However, I can’t wait to get started with DS projects again with W&B by my side!

[vincentb]

Hello everyone,

my name is Vincent, I am a Computer Science and former Business Administration student from Germany and pretty new to Machine Learning. (except for a single module that was giving an overview on AI and a general personal interest)

I am currently preparing for my bachelor’s thesis, which will be about Cashflow- /Non Performing Loan Prediction and am therefor finally having the opportunity and enough time to dive into the fabulous world of Machine Learning.

I am really glad that I stumbled upon WandB’s Youtube channel since your content gives me exactly the kind of guidance that I was hoping to find.

I alwas found that ML or AI in general is a very fascinating topic. Both from a technical/logical and a philosophical point of view. I joined this community since I really like what is going on here and am excited for it’s potential and future development.

ps: I am a little hurt that there is an “americas”, “africa”, “asia” and even “japan” emoji but none for europe

Hi! I’m Thonia and I am BSc in Physics and MSc in Signal/Image Processing.I started my research 6 years ago with Astrophysics, where I started dealing with image processing, but mostly investigating analytical methods, such as the mathematics behind sparsity and inverse problems. Now I work as a Data Scientist.

• C/C++/Python/Matlab
• Currently a beginner in Deep Learning.
• I accidentally found W&B Youtube channel with helpful discussions on Fastbook and…Man, you really saved me. I’m working in a new project with the government and your videos gave exactly the discussions I needed. Immensely grateful!
