🧐 About Me

👀 Hi, I'm Yunpeng Zhang, an AI practitioner passionate about pushing the boundaries of large model capabilities. My core work revolves around post-training of VLMs/LLMs, including SFT, RL, and data recipe design. Beyond that, I'm actively exploring AIGC, Agentic RL, and World Models — always learning, always building.

🧠 I'm committed to turning research ideas into practical, reproducible engineering work. I believe AI is not a weapon to replace humanity, but a force to liberate human productivity — freeing people to pursue the higher-value endeavors that are uniquely human.

🤝 Open to discussion and collaboration on AI-related projects — feel free to reach out!
