Areas of interest fall somewhere between Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning. Lately, this journey has led to teaching LLMs to generate / understand programming languages, while previous worked focused more on natural language generation, dialogue systems, and machine learning applications for NLP.
Previously, he was a research associate at the University of Cambridge, University of Sheffield and University College London. He graduated and received his MSc and PhD from the Athens University of Economics and Business.
