AI/ML Intern

Overview

As an AI/ML Intern at Pluto Money, I led the development of an intelligent financial assistant chatbot that offers users personalized planning features like portfolio diversification and stock analysis. I used state-of-the-art tools and frameworks to integrate real-time streaming, function calling, and dynamic knowledge retrieval.

Key Responsibilities

• Built a Gen-AI chatbot capable of performing portfolio analysis, retirement planning, and stock Q&A
• Integrated agentic RAG with function calling and prompt engineering to enable dynamic tool usage
• Implemented fallback to online web search when internal knowledge base couldn’t resolve user queries
• Developed speech-to-speech interaction using Deepgram + ElevenLabs with 2s response latency
• Designed front-end with server-side rendering (SSR) and SEO-friendly structure including sitemap

Key Achievements

• Reduced average query resolution time by 100% with optimized toolchains
• Delivered hands-free real-time chatbot with 2-second end-to-end latency
• Successfully deployed an AI-first feature used by hundreds of test users during beta phase
