Current activity

I am currently involved in the following projects:
  • AI for the laptop. - This project, currently in development, *should* close the missing gap in Large Language models, providing a way to train large models on a laptop and in traditional multicore CPUs at speed, without the need of expensive equipment. Sounds crazy? AI itself sounded crazy...
  • Zetesim - This is a company that uses high performance computing and advanced mathematical modelling to provide forecasts for infectious diseases worldwide
  • Rewriting Economics - This website attempts to provide a review of economic theory by analysing basic failures of modern economics and its foundations
