My journey into the world of AI began in 2019 during my studies in "systems engineering" when I won a competition in emoji classification and realized that I wanted to apply research to real-world tasks. In 2020, I enrolled in a master's program in artificial intelligence, led the AI division at a startup, and launched a YouTube channel dedicated to explaining key AI concepts. These experiences revealed to me a substantial gap between academic research and industry requirements, and in 2022, I became a co-founder of Towards AI to bridge that gap. In 2024, I paused my work on a PhD in medical AI to focus on creating practical solutions. Experience showed that successful AI products require more than just research—they need well-structured technologies and processes. Together with the expert team at TAI, we identified an optimal technology stack for adapting large language models to specific tasks, achieving the necessary accuracy and reliability metrics for a scalable product. Through Towards AI Academy and key projects like the course "From Beginner to Advanced LLM Developer" and an upcoming book, I strive to share these tools and help you create truly effective AI solutions.
