--experience
        Software engineer intern @publicissapient where I
        manifested AI agent for CI/CD pipelines well before agents were normalized.

        I was responsible for the backend development which was written in python (FASTAPI)

--languages
        They say all programming languages are bad but without them I wouldn't have lived my dream of controlling little hex addresses to be my minions.

        Examples:
            - Python
            - C++
            - JavaScript
            - Java

--ai, --artificial-intelligence
        When I look at today's AI models I fail to understand how a bloody machine is more intelligent than me? Something is gotta be wrong.
        So I looked at the abyss for too long in search of my answers but to my amaze, the abyss didn't look back at me.
        I learnt cool things though.
        
        Examples:
            - [Helium](https://github.com/DebmalyaSen34/HeliumLM)
                A small language model (SLM) built by me from scratch trained on tinystories data from huggingface.
                A transformer based architecture.
                Trained for weeks on free compute.
            - [Helium Agent](https://github.com/DebmalyaSen34/helium-agent)
                A lightweight(hence the name) and highly customizable terminal AI agent that runs local models using llama.cpp.
                Inspired by the simplicity of Pi Code I wanted to write my AI Agent that can do almost everything a production level corporate agent is capable of without the heavy dependency and greed.
                Still many features are being added.
            

--machine-learning
        I saw myself learn, others learn so naturally I was curious to see a machine learn.
        I self taught myself everything about ML and made few projects which integrated **biology** and **ml**.
        
        Example:
            - [https://github.com/DebmalyaSen34/pathway](Pathway)

--web-dev
        I started my programming journey with this domain and created many projects for fun and some for startup (yes, I was in a highly motivated group of people).
        You can see my transitions from pure HTML to react and from react to fastapi(for backend ofcourse).
        I am still doing this as one of my friend asked me to help in their companies website development.

        Example:
            - [Preperly](https://github.com/DebmalyaSen34/next-client-side)
            A website for my startup which focused on prebooking of tables in restaurants and also prebooking of orders.
            - [Aura](https://github.com/DebmalyaSen34/aura-io)
            A website where you can post about your daily incidents and let an AI judge your incident and it will give you AURA points which can be +ve or -ve.
            Your goal is to increase your AURA as much as possible.

--hobbies
        I play video games. A lot!
        I read books. Not a lot!
        I watch movies. A lot!
