Likith Shetty — AI/ML Engineer in Bengaluru

Hi! I'm Likith Shetty, based in . I'm currently pursuing an M.Sc. in AI and Machine Learning at CHRIST University, and I build agents, retrieval systems and the occasional optimizer.

Most of what I make ends up on GitHub, and the whole list is here. The ones I've deployed are live.

I like systems that admit when they don't know something. They would rather tell you they aren't sure than guess at an answer. Some of them run retrieval on a model small enough to live inside the function, which costs nothing per query and never phones anyone. I wrote about why small models might be the future if that sounds like an odd choice; the rest of the writing is over here.

Most recently I was an AI intern at Ontara AI, building retrieval pipelines and agent workflows that went into client-facing products. Before that I interned at PayNearby in Mumbai and led the IT Club at Nitte University. There's a resume if you want the long version.

Almost none of it gets written in silence. Here are the playlists if you want them.

If you'd like to chat, reach me by e-mail or on LinkedIn.
