Who am I??? ⚡

Artificial Intelligence Ethusiast

My name is Mahsa Amani. I was always mesmerized by the transformative power of technology. My passion for artificial intelligence began at an early age, as I was captivated by movies and cartoons that delved into the concept of machines learning, thinking, and developing their own consciousness. This insatiable curiosity guided me through my high school years at NODET School and eventually led me to pursue a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science at Sharif University of Technology in Iran. Throughout my academic journey and beyond, I have dedicated countless hours to working on diverse projects in the field of AI, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and, last but not least, Natural Language Processing (NLP).
