Hi, I’m Yves Peirsman.
I’m crazy about language and AI.
Language Technology
I have two decades of experience in Natural Language Processing, as an academic researcher, NLP engineer and CTO.
- I’ve built NLP software and models for a variety of tasks, from search to information extraction and classification.
- I’ve applied AI in a range of sectors, including finance, education, healthcare, e-commerce, etc.
- I’ve contributed to open-source software and published freely available NLP models that have been downloaded millions of times.
- I’m the organizer of the Belgium NLP Meetup, which brings together NLP enthusiasts in Belgium.
Talks & Workshops
I often give talks and workshops on artificial intelligence, and writing with large language models. I’ve been invited by a wide range of organizations, from KBC and AG Insurance to OVAM, to introduce their staff to the theory and practice of large language models. I also teach courses on creative writing with AI in collaboration with Creatief Schrijven and Wisper. Get in touch through the button below if you’d like to learn more.
