Working in healthcare technology and doing some independent AI alignment research on the side.
MSc in applied mathematics/theoretical ML.
Interested in increasing diversity, transparency and democracy in the EA movement. Would like to know how algorithm developers can help “neartermist” causes.
Hi, introducing myself :)
I’m an aspiring Israeli EA and fairly new to the forum. I’m doing my master’s in machine learning and aiming to work in AI algorithms/safety/ethics (preferably all of them). Not really sure how to get there, so I’d be happy to talk to anyone who has advice.
I joined EA about 2-3 years ago, and I’m enthusiastic about our activity, though I think we should sometimes take our numerical calculations and moral framework with more humility. I volunteer in some projects in the Israeli community.
I am chronically ill, which I usually wouldn’t tell someone in an introduction, but I feel discussion and representation of how disabled and chronically ill people can find their place in the EA community is lacking. Anyone who has thoughts on the matter, or wants to discuss personal experiences, is welcome to talk about this.
I am also a classical pianist, a great vegan cook, a chili pepper grower, an amateur linguist and a founding member of NWWC (which you may not know about yet. spoilers!)
