Greetings! This is JJ, and I am thrilled to welcome you to my corner of the internet! Taking inspiration from Lilian Weng, whose blog has been an invaluable resource during my studies and work in AI/ML, I’ve decided to also share my learning notes, thoughts, and updates through here.
Why Blogging?
While I used to constantly write some diary during my childhood, I have to admit that I haven’t done so for quite a while. Blogging on this site, for me, it may be more than just a digital diary. I hope to crystallize my thoughts, document my learning experiences, and engage in meaningful conversations with readers.
Learning from the Best
In aspiring to emulate the dedication and passion that Lilian brings to her work, I’ve also been influenced by a conversation with Xingyou Song. Our discussion, held in front of DeepMind’s booth at 2023 ICML, encouraged me to consider blogging as a medium for sharing practical insights. In my employment history so far, publishing the research and development work that I lead and contribute has not been an organizational priority or highly restricted. I see blogging as a means to contribute to the research community while navigating the intricate landscape of addressing urgent medical needs, such as early cancer diagnosis and therapeutic intervention.
What to Expect
This blog is a personal expression and does not reflect the opinions or positions of my current or former employers. I am committed to avoiding any disclosure of sensitive information from my professional engagements. Despite these constraints, I’m enthusiastic to log a diverse mix of content, encompassing my learning and experiences in AI/ML, insights from the intersection of technology and science, and reflections on the challenges and triumphs of bridging these two dynamic worlds. I might also throw in some random, fun tidbits. Stay tuned!
