HI, I’M ALEKSA GORDIĆ
About me
I’m an ex-Google DeepMind / Microsoft ML engineer currently building my own startup (still in stealth mode). If you’re passionate about generative AI do reach out to me! I’m looking for extremely passionate and smart people (with a track record) to reinvent parts of the internet! ❤️
Knowledge of LLMs, multimodal learning (esp. videos), building scalable video platforms, video streaming, and keeping up to date with the latest ML trends is something I’m looking for!
I also run The AI Epiphany YouTube channel, and I occasionally share my projects on GitHub and blogs on Medium.
You can connect with me on LinkedIn, Twitter, Discord. If you wish to support me you can do so on my Patreon.
I’m always creating, hacking, learning, and educating.

I was always into sports (martial arts, calisthenics, powerlifting, etc.) and (human) languages. I currently speak 5 languages (sorted from better to worse) those being:
Serbian, English, German, Spanish, and Portuguese.
I did my bachelor’s in electronics & computer science at the School of Electrical Engineering in Belgrade. My thesis was on using Android to control various uC submodules via Bluetooth.
Ever since I was a kid, I was constantly learning on my own (I think it was partially out of spite – being unhappy with official schooling).
