Researching a neglected prior for cooperation and honesty inspired by the neuroscience of altruism called self-other overlap in state-of-the-art ML models.

-created a multi-agent RL setting in which two PPO agents have to cooperate to complete a task-formulated multiple operationalizations for testing the presence of Perception-Action Mechanism (self-other neuronal overlap as a model for empathy) in Deep RL agents-trained and tested the agents and discovered preliminary evidence of PAM

-organised and facilitated a panel event that featured three leading researchers in the field of AI Safety: Lewis Hammond, Vanessa Kosoy and Jesse Hoogland -implemented the AI Safety Nudge competition-provided feedback on AI Safety Field Building events and strategies

-Machine learning, with lectures and assignments from MIT-Deep learning, with lectures and assignments from the University of Michigan, NYU, and Hugging Face-ML safety, with lectures and assignments produced by Dan Hendrycks at UC Berkeley

Oxford, England, United Kingdom

-used Salesforce to pay grants-sent grant agreements with Conga-provided general support for the Operations team

Oxford, England, United Kingdom

-facilitated several AGI Safety Fundamentals cohorts with Oxford students interested in AI Safety-provided strategy and logistics support for the weekly talks given by AI Safety researchers

-developed a research proposal for which I was accepted in their most competitive year until then -implemented an RL enviornment and ran experiments on the behaviour of RL agents looking for behavioural predictors of instrumental and terminal goals -investigated strategies to minimise the risk of deceptive AI being developed-efficiently communicated with.

-wrote an in-depth literature review on the scientific literature on the mechanisms and evolution of psychological altruism and empathy in humans and other mammals -investigated further streams of research for applying these insights to AI Alignment

-C# and.Net coding, testing, deployment of proprietary web applications-Identified and understood data sources within the MeVitae business, including structured, unstructured and Big Data-Designed and tested algorithms for the automated scoring/shortlisting system-Guided stakeholders across the group to implement new algorithms and methods based on my work.

Petroşani, Hunedoara, Romania

-efficiently checked for vulnerabilities in the company's website and services-devised and implemented plans to fix the vulnerabilities that were found-advised back-end and front-end developers on the latest web-security practices

-developed complex user interfaces for my client's needs-wrote clean code that they could understand and later improve on
