Me

I am interested in alignment and capabilities research and engineering for LLMs, with a focus on post-training.

I am fascinated by how everything works, and by the nature of the universe we find ourselves in. That curiosity lands most often on two things: artificial intelligence and human consciousness. Most of what I read and build sits somewhere between them: how these systems come to behave the way they do, and what that does or does not tell us about how we do.

Beyond those, I follow history, philosophy, psychology, geopolitics, economics, and financial markets. Most of that learning happens on LinkedIn, X, and YouTube, and it is where a lot of my spare attention goes.

I also enjoy teaching and public speaking. Explaining something to an audience is the fastest way I know to find the gaps in my own understanding, which is a large part of why I keep notes here at all.

Away from a screen, I work out (mostly strength training), run, and play sports whenever I get the chance. The ones I play most are table tennis, badminton, and football, in that order, which also happens to be the order of how good I am at each.

I only really enjoy one video game, and that is FIFA, now EA Sports FC.

Goals

I see myself working at an AI lab or robotics company in the near future, tackling interesting post-training problems. My long-term goal is to use AI for scientific discovery and to reduce human suffering by curing diseases such as cancer.
