I'm a data scientist at SentinelOne, and I'm passionate about the power of data to drive insights and innovation. My work centers around machine learning, deep learning, and Bayesian modeling, and I've spent years honing my skills in Python scientific programming. As an organizing member of the PyData Tel Aviv conference, I'm dedicated to fostering collaboration and knowledge-sharing in the data science community. I take pride in building Python packages that make data workflows more streamlined and efficient. When I'm not working with data, you can find me hiking in the great outdoors or exploring the vibrant cultural scene of Tel Aviv.

ChatGPT helped with rephrasing this paragraph. Also, the last line was generated entirely by the bot and is untrue. I do have two daughters and a partner with whom I love spending time.

Uncovering My Holocaust Legacy: Using LLMs for Historical Exploration

My grandmother mentioned she had never read any of her father’s articles.
I thought: “No way.”

He was a well-known journalist in his time. Even with everything that happened — the war, the displacement, the loss — there’s just no chance that everything was gone.

So I embarked on a journey, blending personal history with the power of modern AI.

Using Large Language Models like ChatGPT, I explored digitized Yiddish archives to uncover my great-grandfather’s writings, reclaiming a piece of my own legacy.

This talk highlights the process, the challenges, and the emotional impact of using AI in a profoundly personal context — while exploring broader implications for historical research and personal deep dives.

Ummm, actually

From building single page apps to heavy cloud workflows, from AI agents to nested if condition, from automation pipelines to manual qa, tech people are excited about a lot of things, but one things stands above all else - and that's correcting people - join our game show that'll prove that you ARE the true lord of commits, and can classify correctly between the true elements and the false elements of a statment - We will have more description as we progress
