I’ m immensely passionate about AI. I’ m currently pursuing my Honours and have plans to continue my research interests. I’ ve worked on applying computer vision to automatically detect violence in surveillance cameras which would have massive implications on security systems and civilian safety, and I’ m looking to apply AI to the field of robotics.
I think that AI has boundless potential and I’ m eager to apply it in many domains and to play a small part in furthering humanity’ s technological progress.”
