About Smriti Singh
I’m a Machine Learning Research Engineer working at the intersection of generative AI, NLP, and ethical AI, with growing interest in how these technologies can shape the future of finance. My work centers on building AI systems that are not only powerful, but also trustworthy, reliable, and human-centered.I earned my M.S. in Computer Science from The University of Texas at Austin, where my research focused on how large language models perceive emotions and social nuance. My publications have appeared at leading venues (ACL, NAACL, COLING), covering topics such as debiasing embeddings and multimodal bias detection. It is my honor to have had some of this work featured in the New Scientist and highlighted in UT Austin’s Newsletter.In industry, I’ve worked on projects that bring cutting-edge generative AI into production, working across technical and non-technical teams to create systems that meet complex, real-world needs. I thrive on translating emerging research into solutions that balance innovation, fairness, and impact.Outside of research and engineering, I’m passionate about mentorship, community, and communication. I’ve spoken at PyData Global and FruitPunch AI, and I’m always open to relevant public speaking/mentoring opportunities around AI, ethics, fairness, safety, women in AI/ML and applied machine learning. If any of these topics seem interesting to you, feel free to drop a DM:)
