Working independently on making AI systems reason safely about decision theory and acausal interactions, collaborating with Caspar Oesterheld and Emery Cooper.

I try to check the LessWrong infrequently. If you wanna get in touch, you can use my admonymous link and leave your email address there, so I can reply to you! (If you don’t include some contact details in your message, I can’t reply)

You can also just send me thoughts and questions anonymously!

How others can help me

Be interested in working on/​implementing ideas from research on acausal cooperations! Or connect me with people who might be.

How I can help others

Ask me about acausal stuff!

Or any of my background: Before doing independent research, I worked for the Center on Long-Term Risk on s-risk reduction projects (hiring, community building, and grantmaking.) Previously, I was a guest manager at the EA Infrastructure Fund (2021), did some research for 1 Day Sooner on Human Challenge Trials for Covid vaccines (2020), did the summer research fellowship at FHI writing about IDA (2019), worked a few hours a week for CEA on local groups mentoring for a few months (2018), and helped a little bit with organizing EA Oxford (2018/​19). I studied PPE at Oxford (2018-2021) and psychology in Freiburg (2015-2018.)

I also have things to say about mental health and advice for taking a break from work.
