Singaporean AI researchers are kind of rare. Over the years, many people have asked me if I know other Singaporean AI researchers working on the bleeding age. Here's a thread introducing some of these Singaporean AI researchers who I know of that are doing amazing work! 👇 1) Koh Jing Yu (@kohjingyu) at CMU who worked on Pathdreamer and Parti at Google (jykoh.com/) 2) Koh Pang Wei (@PangWeiKoh) at Google/UW who works on reliable ML and won the best paper at ICML. (koh.pw/) 3) Shawn Tan (@tanshawn) at MILA who works on NLP and won the best paper at ICLR for the ordered neurons work (blog.wtf.sg/). 4) Alvin Chan (@a1vinchan) at MIT who works on designing medical nanoparticles with deep learning (alvinchan.io/). 5) Jason Phang (@zhansheng) at NYU/EleutherAI who works on LLMs and NLP (jasonphang.com/). Singapore has a lot going for it. Great food, clean AF, low taxes, it's also uber safe. Sadly, AI research is not one of them. It's noisy, and sometimes iffy 😅😅. As such, younger local Singaporeans (e.g., undergrads) don't really know where to look. I hope this list gives some grounding & inspiration to the younger (Singaporean) generation who are looking for role models or references. You're welcome 😀.

ML will not be the same in 3-5 years, and ML folks who continue to follow the current data-centric paradigm will find themselves outdated, if not jobless. Take note.
