About Sonny Kang
I have more than 20 years of experience in financial technology, data intelligence, and artificial intelligence infrastructure, and have been committed to solving complex problems with machine learning and search technologies. From Bloomberg\'s financial news recommendations to Palantir\'s multimodal intelligence platform, to Stripe\'s enterprise-level AI applications, my work has always been about turning cutting-edge technology into truly useful products.I am passionate about deep learning, retrieval systems, generative models, and risk detection. I also pay attention to the scalability of the system, privacy protection, and the implementation of actual business. Compared with the pursuit of technological breakthroughs, I care more about how technology can serve the real world and affect the operation of the global financial system.
