Looking for academic level ML study partners

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a small, focused study group (or learning partner) dedicated to deep, academiclevel understanding of AI/ML not tutorials :), not shortcuts, not surface level courses. My learning path is structured and intense: Advanced Python (data model, OOP, decorators, closures) Linear algebra, calculus, probability (university level) Pandas/Numpy (vectorization, broadcasting, clean pipelines) ML algorithms implemented from scratch (regression, SVM, trees, boosting) PyTorch fundamentals (tensors, autograd, training loops) Goal: strong ML foundations leading into deep learning and transformers. I study 6+ hours daily, consistently, and I’m looking for people who value: discipline depth mathematical intuition research-oriented mindset building real projects (from scratch) rep
