Built with open source AI workflows from julep.ai

Hey, I’m Diwank.

I build AI systems, but mostly I just think—a lot.
About intelligence, consciousness, qualia, and the weird puzzles hiding between neurons and silicon chips.

Dropped out of college for a Thiel Fellowship, explored physics and philosophy at Columbia, then dove into startups because building beats theorizing any day.

Currently, I’m exploring 1foundational models, and 2cognitive architectures at Julep— with some 3extra mint. Not just for what they can do, but what they can teach us about our own mysterious minds.

When I’m not deep in the weeds of cognition or code, you’ll find me writing poems, fussing over my golden retriever puppy Nala, obsessing about 4cafe racers, or planning my escape to Hobbiton.

Welcome to my mental playground. Glad you stopped by.
