Innovating for Impact | Open Source AI for a Better World

Hi, I’m Shalini Ananda, an AI engineer and open-source advocate dedicated to solving real-world challenges. I create AI frameworks like Neuron and RefactorEarth, leveraging Python, C++, Rust, and Lua to drive sustainability, smart grids, and legal AI solutions. With a Ph.D. in MCMC simulations from UC San Diego, my work bridges research and practice—turning cutting-edge algorithms into tools for real-world change.

From reducing digital carbon footprints to enhancing AI security, I believe in open-source innovation for a better future. Let’s build something impactful together!
