Hi! I'm
Dario Soatto
I study CS & Economics at Stanford and do research at SAIL. I'm broadly interested in building intelligent systems, using AI to study psychology/behavior, and understanding how technology impacts macroeconomics and geopolitics.

Projects
Recently, I've been building (i.e. vibing) a potpourri of random apps, mostly related to AI, politics, or both. I'm still learning (and hopefully improving), but I hope you'll find something interesting!
03
Adventures
I sometimes get the urge to do something adventurous and potentially risky. It usually involves moving a long distance.
04
Writing
Every now and then, I have thoughts that warrant more than a tweet. I mostly write about tech, investing, and life.

Favorites
I keep track of my favorite books, blogs, movies, etc. If you have any recs please let me know!
