Profile

expertise

Deep technical

Sustained peer-reviewed contribution to ML, alignment, interpretability, or safety techniques. Could review a frontier paper.

Redwood Research. Active publisher on AI control, scheming, alignment-stress-testing.

recognition

Established

Reliable, recognised voice within their specific subfield. Cited and invited but not central to general AI discourse.

Recognised in alignment community.

vintage

Scaling era

Worldview formed during GPT-2/3, scaling laws, Anthropic's founding. Pre-ChatGPT but post-deep-learning. The 'scale is all you need' debate is live.

Strategy positions

Alignment firstendorses

Solve technical alignment before capability thresholds close

Argues frontier labs should adopt AI control protocols that remain safe against scheming behaviour.

You don't need to assume your AI is aligned. Design the deployment so that you're safe even if it isn't.
