dpasca/README.md

Programming represents the pinnacle of exploration and creativity for me. I'm deeply involved in R&D, constantly pursuing innovative ideas and technologies. In the years I also found significant satisfaction in developing impactful software, particularly in the realms of gaming and interactive media, used and enjoyed by millions worldwide.

My native language is Italian ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น, I'm fluent in English ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ, decent in Japanese ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต, and I can catch some words in Russian ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ and Chinese ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ.

Career

My current focus lies in AI Research & Development, working both at the low level with C++, Python, and PyTorch, and at the higher level with LLMs, OpenAI's API and agent-based architectures.

I've successfully applied AI / ML to:

  • Financial market forecasting: ENZO-TS
  • Simple autopilot logic for airframes: XPSVR
  • Virtual assistants with fact-checking and RAG: ChatAI
  • Video games: RogueLLM

Prior to AI, I dedicated over two decades to game development and real-time 3D graphics, gaining experience in major gaming corporations as well as spearheading projects at my own development studio.

A programmer in 2024 ?

I'm not a terribly nostalgic person, and while I do appreciate how programming used to be, I very much welcomed the benefits recently brought by AI tools such as ChatGPT and Copilot. I've always wished for more time and more brain power to explore and implement many ideas that I had, and these tools are a giant leap in that direction.

I believe this to be a new golden age for engineers. Modern LLMs are incredibly powerful. A major focus of my research is to extract the most from them, from the perspective of a software engineer.
