I am a research fellow at the Machine Intelligence Research Institute. I recently finished my Master's degree in Computer Science at Stanford. I like programming and writing stuff. Some of it can be found here. My interests include:

• The theory of creating artificial intelligence that is aligned with human values. This is the main thing I am researching at the moment.
• Probabilistic programming (with languages like Church).
• Programming language design, functional programming, type theory, Haskell, etc.
• Probabilistic models of cognition, which often use probabilistic programs.
• Game theory, especially mechanism design and voting theory.
