Tianyi (Alex) Qiu

Hi! I am Tianyi :)

I conduct machine learning research on AI safety and alignment, with a special focus on how it interacts with societal systems and human moral progress.

I was a research intern at the Center for Human-Compatible AI, UC Berkeley. I am a senior at Peking University, as a member of the Turing Class in Computer Science and the PKU Alignment Team.

Feel free to check out my CV.

 

Research

My answer to the Hamming question (“What are the most important problems [that you should probably work on]?”)

I strive to become a “full-stack researcher”, hoping to combine experimental, mathematical, and interdisciplinary methods to approach these problems.
