My name is Ujjwal and I am interested in natural language processing and deep learning. I have more than ten years of industry and research experience in machine learning and related areas. I occasionally blog about new things I learn and hope to write more in the near future.
Currently, I am a Software Engineer on Meta’s Generative AI team, working on safety of Large Language Models.
