I'm a former theoretical physicist who worked in (artificial) photosynthesis research and now work in finance / IT at 3BG.
My main interests are at the intersection of AI, finance, and technology — especially practical AI systems that can run efficiently on local hardware.
- Local AI and open LLMs — LLaMA and recently more and more Gemma
- Fine-tuning & PEFT, quantization, and CPU offloading for local hardware (I'm a GPU-poor) — I really like DeepSpeed!
- Transfering cutting edge AI research into applications in finance
- Recently: Actively countering second-order effects of daily using AI within an IT team (creating active course-work etc.) — from productivity boosts to AI “brain fry” and cognitive debt from LLM-assisted writing
- Fun fact: I’m an avid Padel-Tennis player and we have our own Padel-App
- 15+ years of C++ development
- 10+ years of Python development
- Nowadays usually use PyTorch and Triton but formerly TensorFlow
- GPU programming with CUDA and SYCL
- Was once a heavy user of Mathematica / Wolfram Language
