Horace He

I like machine learning and compilers, and I especially like both of them together.

I currently work on PyTorch at Meta. I go by the pseudonym "Chilli" (or variants of it) on most websites.

Why you might know me.

• My work on PyTorch and torch.compile, such as GPT-Fast
• I've written a number of technical articles and tweets about ML Systems, such as Making Deep Learning Go Brrrr From First Principles
• I wrote an article on the State of Machine Learning Frameworks after my internship on the PyTorch team.
• I used to be the primary maintainer for the most popular VSCode Vim extension (VSCodeVim).
• I'm competing in the International Collegiate Programming Competition (ICPC) World Finals for Cornell, and have also contributed heavily to the excellent ICPC algorithms library KACTL.
• Back in high school, I founded and helped lead First Tech Challenge team 8375 (Vulcan Robotics), ending up as Finalist Alliance Captain in 2016 World Finals. This was our robot.
