I am not a prolific speaker, neither a good one. But I have always loved a good talk given by speakers who draw you in with their gestures, content, and the way they define the visual experiences. I want to do similar but I don't think I have put enough work to get there, yet. Still this page collects whatever I have done so that I can plan out a possible future.

Here are many talks that I am not proud of, many are extremely internal to my then organisation and you might not get any value from them, but I will keep them here for archival purposes.

2019-2021

I joined Skit.ai (previously Vernacular.ai) in 2018. After building the first version of the product, we went through a summer of technical deep dives that led to a lot many talks. There are probably more talks from this phase, but these are more public ones that I could find and collect.

I used a lot of Org Mode document based presentations in this phase so the real value is probably in the videos, which are not available.

Here are the ones I covered in chronological order:

  1. [2021-10-28 Thu] Introduction to Statistical Learning Theory, internal company talk on introducing ML folks to a few core fundamental Theory concepts.
  2. [2021-05-21 Fri] Xs and Ys, internal company talk to onboard tech folks on ML at a very high level. The main idea was to align on the general data flow so that the idea around MLOps could be communicated more efficiently.

2012-2016

My Bachelor years. Few really old items are kept here.

These contain primitive versions of the design approach that I still use in my sildes, wherever I have to use slides.
