Piotr Migdal

Warsaw, Poland

Hi, I am Piotr, and my surname means an Almond!

I am a freelance deep learning consultant with a Ph.D. in quantum physics, p.migdal.pl and @pmigdal.

Curiosity is the primary motivation in my life. But there is one thing I enjoy more than learning: sharing knowledge. I do whatever it takes: simplifying ideas, writing code, creating interactive data visualizations, or even - developing games.

I book 30% of my time for projects for the public good. I believe that as much possible knowledge should be free and accessible. So, I write technical blog posts, contribute to open source projects, lead collaborative projects, organize events, give workshops to students and mentor people.

Examples

Blog posts

Open source projects

See p.migdal.pl/projects for more. Right now I focus on:

Moreover, I am not afraid of edgy projects, see e.g. Does AI have a dirty mind, too? by one of my mentees.

Call

I want to keep it free and open-source. As you imagine, it all takes time and effort. Every contribution gives:

  • Time I can safely use to develop such projects.
  • Support and motivation. There are ups and downs.
  • A person to be accountable to. I have ADHD and finishing things just for myself is hard. Finishings things for you will be easier!

Reaching this goal will mean that people care about open source projects I develop and motivate me to keep going. :)
