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!

🇨🇦 Attending my last NeurIPS as a PhD student! Presenting our recent work, Patient-Ψ, at a few workshops --- come by! Schedule in 🧵

I'm on the job market, looking for TT faculty roles & post-docs.

DM if you'd like to chat (or invite me to a party 🥳)!

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. 🎮

The RL (and some non-RL folks) starter pack is almost full. Pretty clear that the academic move here has succeeded

Hello! 😀 I'm excited that this place can replace the other one.

I'm an applied ML researcher/engineer with The Coalition studio. Currently creating ML-powered tools for our games. Previously shipped RL/IL bots in Racket Club at Resolution Games. Before that, MSR postdoc + Georgia Tech PhD.
