Hi,

My name is Ali Faraji.

I am a machine learning scientist, mathematics enjoyer, and an open-source fan.

Goals for 2026

  • Contribute more to open-source projects
  • Continue learning new languages
  • Learn a new programming language for fun
    • I’m thinking about Rust
  • Write more blog posts—specifically, sharing my ideas and experiments in machine learning that might be useful or insightful to others

Day-to-Day Work

As of April 2026, I’m currently working on:

  • Machine learning @ TD Bank
  • Topics related to LLMs and transformers
  • Exploring more on world models

Open Source

I’m passionate about open-source! I’ve contributed to and developed projects, especially in machine learning and scientific programming. Always eager to collaborate—let’s build something great!

Sports

I love going to gym, swimming, and cycling. I do like chess, but still a lot to learn.
