Hi!
I'm Emmanuel
I'm a London-based software engineer, writer, and speaker. I'm on a mission to help develop a more balanced view about the tech and AI industries, in the midst of all the hype. I'm the author of the books Smart Until It's Dumb and Siliconned.
My story
I studied software engineering in Argentina and then did a PhD at Inria, the French national IT research lab. Afterward, I worked as a data scientist and ran my software consulting company. I wrote Smart Until It's Dumb, Siliconned, and blog articles to help the public discover a not-so-flattering side of the tech industry and discuss how we can make it better. I'm also the author of Engineer's Pocket Guide to Surviving AI.
