Abram Demski

Abram Demski is an AI Safety researcher specializing in Agent Foundations, best known for Embedded Agency (co-written with Scott Garrabrant). His overall approach primarily involves deconfusion research in relation to various concepts related to AI risks, including agency, optimization, trust, meaning, understanding, interpretability, and computational uncertainty (more commonly but less precisely known as bounded rationality). More specifically, his recent work focuses on modeling trust, with the objective of clarifying conditions under which humans can justifiably trust AI.
