About

Hey there! I'm Siddharth, a Master's student in Computer Science at Cornell Tech, New York City, where I spend a lot of time thinking about the future of The Internet, artificial intelligence (AI), and extended reality (check out XR@Cornell).

​

Previously, I worked on research in the areas of AI and Physics, on topics such as image captioning, meta-learning, AI safety, spacecraft design, and neutrinos among others. I also dabble into areas such as genetics, longevity, and energy and climate sciences (where previously I worked on developing and promoting renewable energy systems in rural India, for which I was awarded the Rotary Youth Leadership Award).

​

Although my training has been that of a (rather rigorous) scientist, I enjoy hacking and creating things that others might enjoy. In that vein, I'm extremely interested in technological businesses, especially ones engendered out of novel scientific breakthroughs. You can find some of my work and activities on this webpage. Feel free to get in touch with me!
