AI NATION is a dynamic support and accelerator platform designed for early-stage startups at the forefront of Artificial Intelligence.

Conducting research for my computer science bachelor thesis, exploring how large language models (LLMs) handle conflicting training data and false prompts, with an emphasis on alignment safety. I analyze transformer architecture, focusing on induction heads and in-context learning, by designing experiments that test LLM behavior with true and false inputs. My work aims to uncover vulnerabilities to misinformation, enhancing the reliability and safety of AI systems. Skilled in Python, PyTorch, experimental design, and data analysis, I’m passionate about building trustworthy AI.

As chef de partie I've got to learn new work/cooking processes at the restaurant department of the Abraspungo hotel, which is one of the most popular in the city of Riobamba, Ecuador. During my work at the restaurant along with great people and very talented Chefs, I learned to work under pressure and be efficient and calm when time was short, specially while delivering dishes for customers at rush hours. I value very much the time spent in this internship because I could get a new persepective of working in a team, I learned to communicate effectively with my team members whenever I needed help or as well when they needed it.
