Celebrating after my thesis talk!

I am a research scientist on the Language Team at DeepMind. I received my PhD from Berkeley in May 2019, and a BSEE (Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering) from Rice University in 2013. My research focuses on the intersection of language and vision. I am particularly interested in analyzing why models work (see here), explainability (see here and here), and mitigating/measuring bias in AI models (see here). I recently led the fairness analysis on Gopher, DeepMind's large language model (see here). Recently, I've given a few talks on measuring and mitigating bias in language models. See here for a version I recently gave at UCL. I have a very handsome cat named Softmax Power (Max for short).
