Marc Gong Bacvanski
I'm currently a PhD student at MIT, where I work on analog hardware for intelligence. The field of Machine Learning has given us a mathematical formulation for learning, and today GPUs evaluate that math via algebra. I want to build Learning Machines: physical systems that embody learning rather than merely simulating it.
I'm drawn to attention, balance, craft,
light, fractals, contrast,
wonder, mischief, and the surreal—
especially when shared.
Currently
I am interested in building the full stack of intelligence: hardware and algorithms, together.
