Hello
๐
Iโm the original author of Instagramโs content ranking algorithms (non-chronological feed, stories and explore) and was a principal engineer / director from 2013-2020. In that time, I also invented products such as the stories polling sticker, Hyperlapse, and emojineering and was named one of the top ten most creative people in business by Fast Company.
Currently, I am a Member of Technical Staff at OpenAI in San Francisco. Previously, I was the co-founder and CEO of Global Illumination, Inc in New York City. Other random side-projects include This Word Does Not Exist and the obvious extension into This Fucked Up Homer Does Not Exist. Iโve also written thoughts on transparency in social media ranking.
Want to talk about engineering at 1B+ scale, the social consequences of ranking algorithms, or whatever?
