About Me
I'm Tim Child, a software developer with a science and teaching background. I have a PhD in condensed matter physics from the University of British Columbia and a Postgraduate Certificate of Education and Qualified Teacher Status from University College London.
More recently, I have turned to full stack development in order to produce a more interactive web app to work with AI than is currently offered by the major players. I have a vision of how AI and large language models can be most effective, I don't see the product out there, so I'm making it myself.
