Background
  • Co-founder and executive director of Timaeus, an AI safety research org working on applications of Singular Learning Theory (SLT) for AI safety. SLT establishes a connection between the geometry of the loss landscape and internal structure in models, which we are using to develop scalable, rigorous tools for evaluating, interpreting, and aligning neural networks.
Miscellany
  • Personal interests may include AI safety, Singular Learning Theory, and related mathematical and computer science research.
