Current Work
I co-lead MATS Research, a research nonprofit that trains talented researchers to work on AI alignment, transparency, and security. We run fellowship programs that have supported 446 researchers, with offices in Berkeley and London.
My focus is on scaling AI safety through field—building the organizations, talent pipelines, and infrastructure needed to ensure advanced AI systems are developed safely. I think about organizational design, talent development, and field-wide coordination.
Mission
I believe the development of transformative AI is one of the most important events in human history, and that we have a narrow window to get the foundations right. My work is oriented toward building the human capital and institutional capacity the field needs to succeed.
