I'm a first-year PhD student at the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering at the University of Washington, advised by Jerry Li. I received my B.S. from the Turing Class at Peking University. View my CV.
I'm currently interested in empirical AI safety. I was trained as a theorist, but the current acceleration in AI capabilities convinces me that mitigating AI risks is more urgent than understanding traditional theoretical objects.
During my undergraduate studies, I was fortunate to learn from great people across various fields. I was advised by Shaofeng Jiang on streaming geometric algorithms, Tongyang Li on quantum algorithms, and Zhiyuan Li on deep learning theory.
