🏆 How Would the Nominee Contribute as an Ambassador?
As a PyTorch Ambassador, I will help the community by organizing simple workshops, AI meetups, and hackathons that show how to use PyTorch from basic deep learning to real-world projects. I will also create learning paths for students and beginners, especially in areas where resources are limited. I will write blog posts, make easy tutorials, and create videos to help people understand PyTorch better. I will guide new contributors in working with open-source projects and research using PyTorch. I am also setting up an AI lab with help from students at IISER and NIT. In this lab, we will build useful AI tools and share our knowledge with others. My goal is to create a friendly and helpful space for anyone who wants to learn and grow with PyTorch.
