Karma: 1,433

I’m a moral psychologist. My work centers on understanding people’s values and decisions — and how these often fall short of what is best for society. I research effective giving, moral circle expansion, and global catastrophic risk. Recently, I’ve become interested in how society will react to the advent of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence.

For the latest updates and insights into my research, follow me on Google scholar and subscribe to my Substack blog.
