I’m a research scientist at Allen Institute for AI (AI2) working with Yejin Choi and the Mosaic team. Currently, I lead the safety effort at AI2 to align OLMO models with ethical principles while preserving their reasoning capabilities. Besides safety, I work on

• Science of LMs: Understanding the limits of Transformers and their inner workings. Check out “Faith and Fate” to learn about the limits of Transformers on reasoning tasks.

In the past, I earned my PhD from the University of Alberta and the Alberta Machine Intelligence Institute with Osmar Zaiane. I was also fortunate to work with brilliant researchers in the field. I have worked with Siva Reddy at Mila/McGill, with Hannah Rashkin, Tal Linzen, David Reitter, Diyi Yang, and Tom Kwiatkowski at Google Research NYC and have worked with Alessandro Sordoni, and Goeff Gordon at Microsoft Research Montreal.
