This week I worked on:

1] Reading the FSDP docs and trying model parallelism on a simple script
2] Integrating FSDP into current RL training script
3] Updating resume and applying to a few jobs
4] Reading chapter 1 of DDIA (second edition) + reading group
5] Had a great time pairing with @Robbie Gordan (he) (SP2'26) and @Jacky Lu (he) (SP2'26) on Open AI Parameter golf challenge. Thank you Robbie for sharing all your insights from working on this challenge. Also had a nice coffee chat with @Mark Mayes (he) (SP2'26)where I learned about his project on using FFTs/Flutter to build an app mapping audio energy to visual movement in the style of electric sheep.
