Hi! I’m Paul Simmering, a developer from Germany specializing in machine learning and natural language processing. I work as Senior Data Scientist at Q Agentur für Forschung.
My current focus is building end-to-end data pipelines for market research powered by large language models. My team and I are building AspectWise, a data pipeline for review analysis. On this website, I write about machine learning, data engineering and developer productivity.
Other interests
- Euro-style games, Magic: The Gathering, Poker, Backgammon and other games that involve luck in a single game but are skill-based in the long run. I also like games involving trading and auctions, such as Power Grid and Figgie.
- Contemporary art, particularly generative art and art inspired by geometry. My favorites are Kjetil Golid, Owen Pomery and Reuben Wu.
- Parks and gardens, especially Japanese gardens. I’m lucky to live close to Blühendes Barock in Ludwigsburg.
- Design and typography. Some examples: Berkeley Graphics, iA, Stripe’s website.
- Practical philosophy. I keep a list of the principles that I find most useful for decision making and contentedness.
- Reading blogs. Check out my blogroll for recommendations.
