This summer I had the incredible opportunity to build Facet AI as my Google Summer of Code project. Facet AI’s purpose is simple: democratize fine-tuning for small language models by turning complex, error-prone workflows into a polished, streamlined experience — from dataset formatting and augmentation to evaluation and deployment — so anyone can craft their own “facet” of Gemma, DeepMind’s open-source vision-language model.

What began as a personal project to reclaim attention soon became something deeper: a reflection on how we build, why we create, and what it means to design for human flourishing – not just social good.
