home writing email resumé Hello, I'm Jim. I care a lot about learning about people, the world around me, and building/researching responsible technology. Most of the time, I work on Large Language Models at Cohere, primarily thinking about how to improve inference and machine learning systems, and bringing immensely unique and useful solutions to problems through these LMs. Another significant chunk of time is spent studying Computer Science at the University of Waterloo. Academically, I'm really curious about ML (especially in NLP, medicine, and interpretability), hard software problems in Distributed Systems and PL/Compilers, Education (broadly and specifically in CS and Math), and how subsets of these interact with each other (e.g. using language models to enhance curiosity-driven learning). Other things that take up my time include reading, learning about the histories and philosophies of both science and art, crosswords, exercise (nowadays lifting, swimming, and bouldering),
