About me

Hello, I'm Abdul Samad Siddiqui, a Senior AI Engineer in Karachi. I build AI products and the plain, reliable software that holds them up. I care about what happens after the demo: whether it still answers well on the hundredth question, on a slow day. I learned this in open source, and what I learn goes back there.
