About me
Currently I’m part of a new research group thinking about advanced AI. Before that, I worked at Longview Philanthropy, and I was a Research Scholar and assistant to Toby Ord at Oxford University’s Future of Humanity Institute.
I’m interested in finding ways to help the future go well, including ideas around effective altruism and progress studies. I sometimes write about this kind of thing.
Also:
- I co-host a podcast called Hear This Idea, about about ideas for solving important problems, and the people working on them
- I was a fellow on the inaugural ‘Roots of Progress’ writing fellowship
- I continue to informally work with (and learn from) Toby Ord
- I’ve thought about some EA project ideas I’d like to help make happen
- I researched space governance as an EA cause area (and now advise a couple groups which were since established)
- I worked on a policy brief about a UN Declaration on Future Generations
- I helped set up a contest to support EA criticism
Before this, I interned with Charity Entrepreneurship, and helped Liv Boeree make videos. Before that, I did philosophy at Cambridge.
In my free time I read, tweet, listen to music, practise BJJ, and play chess badly.
