Swaroop is a research scientist at Google-Deepmind, working on improving Gemini. His research expertise includes instruction tuning and different prompt engineering techniques to improve reasoning and generalization performance in large language models (LLMs) and tackle induced biases in training. Before joining DeepMind, Swaroop graduated from Arizona State University, where his research focused on developing methods that allow models to learn new tasks from instructions. Swaroop has also interned at Microsoft, Allen AI, and Google, and his research on instruction tuning has been influential in the recent developments of LLMs.
