About Dhivya P.
I specialize in conversational AI, natural language processing, and large language models, building production-scale systems that enable millions of people to interact naturally with Siri. My focus is on robust conversational understanding and response generation—especially agentic and context-aware behaviors—while prioritizing privacy, reliability, and real-world deployment constraints such as latency and on-device performance.At Apple, I\'ve led and shipped multiple core capabilities across Siri\'s conversation intelligence stack, including multimodal reference resolution that integrates conversational, visual, and on-screen context in a lightweight on-device architecture, as well as LLM-driven planning and adaptive instruction strategies that improve response generation in production agentic systems.I also publish and collaborate in the research community, with work appearing at venues including NAACL, EMNLP, and EACL
