The Physics of Market Dynamics: Entropy, Networks, and Prediction Limits
Explores the application of physical concepts—entropy, network theory, and computational limits—to the study of economic markets
hey there,
I'm Sid. I like to learn stuff and make things. I try to make things that are useful for people. A few years ago, I created Semantic, a development agency, where I do strategy, engineering, and design for companies building cool products. My focus is in natural language processing, LLMs (finetuning, post-training, and integration), and workflow automation.
Outside of tech, I enjoy researching new topics, practicing yoga, and making music.
