Hi, I have a background in theoretical physics, specifically in simulating quantum optics and quantum fluids. I am now focusing on AI safety, working on ensuring that advanced AI systems are trustworthy, stable, and beneficial. I currently work on technical governance at the Machine Intelligence Research Institute. In the past I have done conceptual and empirical AI safety work, although I now think that governance work is the most promising path to avoiding extremely bad outcomes from AI.
