Yes, I do work full-time as a generative AI consultant, an independent research blogger, and a Rust AI engineer with both manual Rust expertise and experience with Google Antigravity and Claude Code.

What training or mentoring work do I do as a Generative AI Consultant?

I train people at all skill levels to master Generative AI, whether they are students, freshers, professionals, or CXOs. Chat with me on Linkedin and book a session (once a week) at topmate.io/thomascherickal

What digital products are included in my monthly Patreon subscription?

Patreon is for publishing apps that solve pain points for this generation of job-seekers, professionals, executives, and even students. Join below (monthly subscription is 5 USD now, will increase as time goes by): patreon.com/thomascherickal

What digital products or playbooks do I offer on Gumroad?

I offer specialized mini-books and playbooks to master and aid in Generative AI adoption, and also add value to the buyer by leveraging their personal expertise in a novel or creative way. Many products are free, please check it out: thomascherickal.gumroad.com

What is the focus of my upcoming professional role as a Rust AI Engineer?

I plan to implement Python libraries in Rust and contribute to open-source massively with 100% code coverage and Test-Driven Development. Building on this, I pray and hope to implement research ideas like SubQ and TurboQuant and build custom SLM models that need minimal or no GPU support (only CPU inference).
