Hi Bsky people 👋 I'm a PhD candidate in Machine Learning at Carnegie Mellon University.
My research focuses on interactive AI, involving:
🤖 reinforcement learning,
🧠 foundation models, and
👩💻 human-centered AI.
Also a founding co-organizer of the MineRL competitions 🖤 Follow me for ML updates!

Excited to share that the PokeAgent challenge was accepted as a NeurIPS competition!
This should serve as an excellent benchmark for competitive games AND ‘speedrunning’ the RPG. I hope to see both the RL and LLM agent communities working together here to eval agents in Pokemon
More info soon👀

Happy to announce our paper is accepted to #ICLR 🥳
Great working with Zhuorui Ye (a fantastic undergrad applying for PhD!), Geoff Gordon, & Fei Fang on this project.
💫 Stay tuned for an interpretable human-in-the-loop reinforcement learning agent that dramatically reduces human annotation burden!

Not sure of the exact problems you looked at, but we've also found that using VLMs to do simple image annotations (e.g., location of an agent in a grid) can be very error-prone 😅

I had a great time speaking with @khulick.bsky.social about AI safety & our work on training better-behaved agents via the BASALT competition series!
Excited about the potential for using Minecraft as a sandbox to develop safer AI systems. 🎮

I often write about the intersection of #AI and #ethics - here's my recent story for teens about the alignment problem and AI safety @snexplores.bsky.social @stephmilani.bsky.social

How to design artificial intelligence that acts nice — and only nice
Today’s bots can’t turn against us, but they can cause harm. “AI safety” aims to train this tech so it will always be honest, harmless and helpful.
