![[Figura Oscura sul Trono Maestoso.png]] My name is Francesco Pappone (also known on x as @tensorqt). **I'm a tyrannical, cold-hearted Lich King, residing in Northrend, on my frozen throne.** In my spare time, I'm also a PhD student in Machine Learning in Rome, as well as co-founder of [Checkpoint](https://checkpoint-community.github.io/), the largest deeply technical ML community in Italy. Now building [something new](https://x.com/tensorqt/status/1999873834137080128?s=20). I'm currently mainly using this blog to share my technical viewpoints on model architecture and learning dynamics, especially in my "The Graph Side of Attention" series. Keep an eye on my [x](https://x.com/tensorqt) to stay updated. Frostmourne Hungers.
