Hi, I’m Davide.

Programming represents the pinnacle of exploration and creativity for me. I'm deeply involved in R&D, constantly pursuing innovative ideas and technologies. In the years I also found significant satisfaction in developing impactful software, particularly in the realms of gaming and interactive media, used and enjoyed by millions worldwide.

My native language is Italian 🇮🇹, I'm fluent in English 🇺🇸, decent in Japanese 🇯🇵, and I can catch some words in Russian 🇷🇺 and Chinese 🇨🇳.

My current focus lies in AI Research & Development, working both at the low level with C++, Python, and PyTorch, and at the higher level with LLMs, OpenAI's API and agent-based architectures.

I've successfully applied AI / ML to financial market forecasting (ENZO-TS), autopilot for airframes (XPSVR) and, more recently, virtual assistants and agents (ChatAI) running on modern LLMs (more on GitHub)

Prior to AI, I dedicated over two decades to game development and real-time 3D graphics, gaining experience in major gaming corporations as well as spearheading projects at my own development studio.

I'm not a terribly nostalgic person, and while I do appreciate how programming used to be, I very much welcomed the benefits recently brought by AI tools such as ChatGPT and Copilot. I've always wished for more time and more brain power to explore and implement many ideas that I had, and these tools are a giant leap in that direction.

I believe (hope ?) that as much as an equalizer these AI tools are, they will continue to work as a force multiplier, expecially for those of us that have extensive experience in software engineering.
