Hellooooo! You seem to have stumbled across the homepage for the person whose name is at the top of the page. (wow shocker!)

I’m a researcher interested in turning magical realism into realism through open-endedness, design, and making things that challenge our preconceptions of how the world works. If anything you find on here sparks your interest, hit me up @ hi at ivyzhang dot me ! I’m currently an AI Researcher @ Sakana AI

Recently: Was a fellow at Edge Esmeralda,used evolution to make better LLMs , made a little fly-inspired bloom filter thingy, started shipping shiba plushes around the US, and experimented with storing memories inside physical objects w/ NFCs!

In a past life, I spent a year getting to the top 2% of competitive programmers, competed in Battlecode, and worked on agricultural AI @ MSU.
