I'm a Senior Data Scientist at AWS Professional Services Korea. For over 15 years I've worked as a data scientist and machine learning engineer, living at the seam between research papers and production systems — turning frontier ideas into things that actually run.
This blog is what I collect along that seam. I follow the weekly flood of LLM, multimodal, and agent research, but the rule here is simple: keep asking why it matters, not just what the benchmark says. I care more about the design decisions and trade-offs beneath a result than the result itself.
If something here sparks a thought, I'd love to hear it — reach out through any of the channels below.

- Google Analytics counts page views: the page address, the referring page,
your device and browser type and an approximate location. It sets first-party
cookies (

- Paper reviews ask Semantic Scholar for the paper's citation count, and some posts show figures hosted by their original sites (arXiv and others).
- Your browser keeps your theme choice and cached citation counts in local storage; nothing leaves your device for those.
