Exploring “Brain”

Hi, I’m Arshad Kazi

Short (personal & informal) intro: A professional machine learning practitioner in his late 20s who likes to build stuff (for no apparent reason). Mostly an overthinker, often a pretentious, agnostic, self-loathing, and usually an unsatisfied, anxious and hard-to-relax mind. Neurodivergent, I can get little awkward but am faithful, intense, curious and passionate (I think). I like to read and write, currently learning to calm my mind and detach self-worth from external achievements/failures. Only personal goal I have for life is to not die a bozo (which I hope I won’t fail) and obvious professional goal is to find the grand equation of the brain (with the help of theory of deep learning) . Although there are many tags which can describe me, I am more than just a few sentences but also way less informed than what I want you to believe.

Here to share my thoughts and learn, to connect with people just like me or similar to me…

my face!
That’s my face!

Long (& somewhat formal) intro: A data scientist with a deep fascination for understanding the human brain. My passion lies at the intersection of neuroscience and machine learning, where I explore how technology can help us unravel the complexities of the mind. This journey isn’t just about data and algorithms; it’s driven by a desire to uncover the mysteries of how we think, feel, and function.

Though I’m not the most emotional person, I have a philosophical side that loves pondering life’s big questions. As an introverted atheist, I often find solace in quiet contemplation and the relentless pursuit of knowledge. Writing helps me calm the chaos in my mind and think more clearly.

This blog is my cozy corner where I share my thoughts and connect with others who share my passions. Here, you’ll find two main threads:

  1. Random Thoughts: This is where I get personal. From my thoughts on neuroscience and mental health to my emotions, rants, and moments of appreciation for the world around me. It’s not strictly philosophical, but it’s a peek into my imperfect, ever-evolving human side.
  2. Machine Learning: I dive into the basics and intricacies of machine learning. Whether you’re prepping for a job, an interview, or just curious, I aim to make these topics easy to grasp and engaging. It’s all about us learning together.

Whether it’s exploring machine learning, reflecting on neuroscience, or musing over life, I hope you find something here that resonates with you!
