Porting Micrograd to Rust
I have been working on AI projects since 2017 primarily as the token software engineer in a group of AI researchers. My roles have consisted of taking models trained by research teams and integrating them into applications that real people can use. These experiences have given me a degree of exposure to how AI is built, developed, and run that most software engineers haven't had. That said, not having a formal background in AI or working much on the model development side there has been a gap in my understanding about how the tools that we use work. The time has come for me to close that gap.
