Interests

AI that can do things

I'm interested in AI that can write software or handle a phone call. I build tools to try those ideas out.

The projects

Talking to computers

A conversation has pauses, interruptions, and corrections. I've been exploring how to make voice software handle those things.

Quantum computing

I studied how quantum computers affect encryption at QLab. I'm interested in what they could change about keeping information private.

Sinmi's Garage

Things I've built.

Aria

An AI phone agent that answers calls and books appointments. It can transfer the call to a person when needed.

How it works

Aria connects to a real phone number and a calendar. It supports interruptions, so you don't have to wait for it to finish speaking.

Caesar

A way to practice sales calls with AI. It talks back and gives feedback on your phrasing as you go.

How it works

The voice coach listens during practice and can interrupt with a correction. I built it to work on phrasing and speech patterns during a conversation.

AI coding team

A team of AI agents that plans, writes, tests, and reviews software. I built the system that coordinates their work.

How it works

Each agent has a job: one writes code, another tests it, and another checks the changes. Disagreements get a separate review, with human approval for merging.

BitTorrent client

A program that downloads a file in pieces from other people's computers and puts it back together. Written from scratch in C.

How it works

It finds computers sharing the file, requests the pieces it needs, and saves them in the right order.
