Hi, I'm Vivek!

I'm an master's student at UC Berkeley studying Computer Science. Previously, I graduated from Berkeley with a double major in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics. I have interests rooted in anything problem solving - from tackling research questions, to my content creation adventures.

My reserach interests broadly fall under using large language models to uncover lingustic patterns within text. I currently work at BAIR under the Berkeley NLP Group. My latest work includes developing a state-of-the-art model for detecting AI-generated text. Some of my other work consists of researching entropy trends within documents, which you can find here. Within industry, I've worked at Databricks, Waymo and Google.

I also have a soft spot for content creation, creating 15+ animated math videos over at https://youtube.com/vcubingx visualizing topics such as neural networks, complex analysis and fractional calculus. My videos have gathered 85,000+ subscribers and 3,000,000+ views. I've also worked with 3blue1brown in the past, creating interactive lessons on 3blue1brown.com.

Outside of work, I love solving Rubik's cubes and playing badminton. Feel free to contact me at vivekverma [at] berkeley [dot] edu if you want to chat about anything!
