Hi I’m Taner Sekmen 👋
I am Jr Data Scientist & Software Developer, camp lover, and learner, living in Izmir, Turkey. I’m currently developing things at Getir and trying to contribute open source projects or company repositories like Microsoft, Google Research, HuggingFace, Github Education, EthicalML and Data Talks Club.
Also, I’m creating an issue to find out if I can support the development of OpenAI, obsei and networkx.
Additively, I contributed to pandas-ai examples section.
In addition, I translated into Turkish and deployed the dair.ai site, which follows artificial intelligence, natural language processing, and prompt engineering and has over 20k followers.
