About

Portrait of Lorrain Morlet

AI Engineer, based in Paris, France.

Final-year AI student at ESILV (La Défense) with hands-on experience in deep learning, computer vision, and full-stack development. Passionate about applying AI to real-world challenges and thriving in innovative, fast-paced environments.

  • 5-month deep learning internship at Spore.bio (AI for health)
  • Exchange semester at University of New Orleans (USA)
  • Multiple Kaggle competitions (notably ISIC 2024 Skin Cancer Detection)
  • Hackathon winner at Mistral AI (LLM integration in games)

Beyond the screen

  • Speedcubing — I solve Rubik's cubes against the clock and compete on speed.
  • Climbing — I climb regularly, mostly indoors, and I like problems that take a few sessions to finish.
  • Mountain biking — I ride trails whenever I can get out of the city.
