Creative Interfaces Lab

Ayush Kumar

Hey, I’m Ayush! I’m a B.Tech student at IIIT Delhi studying Computer Science and Design, and I love finding the sweet spot where cutting-edge research meets real-world impact. Whether it’s building AI/ML solutions, contributing to open source, or helping launch a quantum tech student body on campus. I’m always chasing the next meaningful challenge.

At the CI Lab’s Centre for Design & New Media (a TCS Foundation Initiative), I work alongside faculty on human-computer interaction and new media research, turning ideas into something tangible. Outside the lab, I’ve helped organize IIIT Delhi’s BuildSec’24 International Cybersecurity Conference, am an active IEEE-IIIT Delhi member, and placed in the top 8 at the All-India FinTech Hackathon. I genuinely enjoy connecting dots between disciplines, between people, and between ideas that don’t obviously belong together.
