Michał Tyrolski

Senior AI Consultant at EY / Independent Researcher

Profile I am interested in building AI systems that can plan, adapt, and generalise in complex environments. My research focuses on AI planning, reinforcement learning, abstraction, and decision-making under distribution shift.

I hold an M.Sc. in Machine Learning (2023), supervised by Prof. Piotr Miłoś and Prof. Marek Cygan, and a B.Sc. in Computer Science (2021), supervised by Prof. Henryk Michalewski and Prof. Łukasz Kaiser, both from the University of Warsaw, MIM Faculty. I currently work as a Senior AI Consultant at EY on agentic AI systems.

Alongside this, I have gained experience in research and engineering roles at NVIDIA, Microsoft, Samsung, DeepFlare, and EY. Since 2020, I have also been involved in the ML in PL Association, supporting scientific programme activities and conference organisation across several editions, including its upcoming 10th anniversary conference.
