About

I'm Varun Daiya, currently a student pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Physics at Krea University. My focus is on the intersection of advanced computation, information theory, and complex systems, with deep interests in machine learning, quantum computing, and the societal impacts of technological shifts. I've authored essays exploring ideas like the evolution of information from 'ink → bits → tokens' and initiated projects like VectorSLM, a small language model prototype. I'm passionate about questioning prevailing approaches in AI and believe it represents a fundamental 'information shift.' I offer thoughtful analysis and prototyping skills, and I'm looking to connect with intellectually curious individuals who share an interest in foundational questions and mutual exploration.

Background

Education

Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Computer Science and Physics at Krea University (Jul 2025 - Jul 2029)

Achievements

  • Authored an essay on the evolution of information from 'ink → bits → tokens' and its societal impact
  • Initiated a project called 'VectorSLM,' a small language model prototype written from scratch in Python

Opinions

  • AI represents a fundamental 'information shift,' not just a technological one, comparable to historical shifts like the printing press or computers
  • Implicitly questions the prevailing scale-centric approach in AI, asking, 'Do we really need 7B+ parameter models for every task?'
