If AI had a dating profile, Satyam Mishra would probably be the person it swipes right on. With 5+ years of wrangling code, math, and GPUs (sometimes successfully), he’s been building everything from GPT-powered autonomous agents to robots that can navigate the world without bumping into walls… most of the time.

Specialties? Oh, just the casual stuff: Generative AI, Machine Learning, Computer Vision, Embedded Systems, and Agentic AI. Recently, he’s been flirting with LLM optimization, Koopman-based AI (yes, it’s as fancy as it sounds), optical computing (optical neural networks), and making AI explain why it does what it does without sounding like a politician.

Projects? He’s rolled out grammar-constrained reinforcement learning (because even AI needs to mind its language), fine-tuned LLMs with RAG systems, built contactless facial authentication (so you can look at your computer and it just knows), and cooked up personalized LMS/ERP platforms that make both students and managers slightly less stressed.

He’s also been the brains behind KoopFormer (a physics-inspired transformer that teaches AI motion synthesis, still in progress work) and NeuroExplain (an LLM that talks neuroscience without melting your brain, still in progress work). On the ops side, he’s deployed secure hybrid AI platforms with K3s, Vault, Prometheus, and GitOps: basically making AI run like a well-oiled (and well-guarded) machine.
