Hi, I'm Hisham ✨!

Salam, I'm a computer science student at York University and an intern of technial staff at Cohere on the Synthetic Data team.

About Me


Hi! I am currently an intern at the AI company Cohere in Toronto. I work on the synthetic data team where we aim to solve the growing problem of data sources being exhausted for large language model training. I also work with model evaluations to determine how well our models stack up against the competition. Finally, I work on very special projects aiming to accelerate human annotation while making the experience more user friendly and efficient. In my free time I enjoy reading, science fiction is my current fixation. I also enjoy graphic design a lot and have been self learning for about 8 years to build out the flow of Adobe Illustrator -> Adobe After Effects -> Web Animations. Expect some examples to end up on this website at some point :). Other than that, I love to chat so feel free to reach out about quite literally anything!
