Welcome!

I’m currently at Anthropic working on evaluating misalignment risk. I previously worked at Conjecture and at Google in a team collaborating with DeepMind.

I often write to think things through, but I then don’t robustly critique or tidy my writing, resulting in writing that conveys something with low confidence. But I still like to have them linked:

• [2024-03-17] In research, optimise for bitrate
• [2024-02-28] Correlated failures and coordinated misalignment
• [2024-02-28] Concerns with RSPs
• [2024-01-07] Evals are as hard as product development
• [2023-05-13] Trust

I’m just living off thoughts and feelings, with a weak and a lazy mind
