Hi, I’m Abdoul Niang, a Brooklyn-based software engineer who loves building AI-powered applications and engaging game experiences. I previously interned at IBM, where I benchmarked Watson against Amazon and Google AI across multiple metrics, built predictive models for real-world AI capabilities, and presented insights to leadership to help shape AI development priorities. I enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams to turn data-driven findings into practical solutions. In school I developed a custom game engine using C-style functions and OpenGL, optimized rendering with shaders and textures, and explored multiple game mechanics. I’m excited to bring hands-on problem solving and creative engineering to future projects, whether in gaming, AI, or beyond.…Hi, I’m Abdoul Niang, a Brooklyn-based software engineer who loves building AI-powered applications and engaging game experiences.
