Final-year PhD student in Artificial Intelligence at Stanford University.
Research focuses on parallelizing dynamical systems traditionally considered inherently sequential, such as recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC).
Developed a family of parallelization techniques called 'ungulates'—including DEER and ELK.
Deeply interested in artificial general intelligence (AGI) and the broader study of intelligence, both natural and artificial.
Specific interests include: recurrent architectures as alternatives to Transformers for native reasoning, hardware-aware AI algorithms and novel hardware, neuro-inspired algorithms inspired by natural intelligence, and applying AI to educational technology.
