 ===== About =====
-Founder of the AGI startup [[https://www.daios.ai|DAIOS]]. Previously I was **VP of Research** at **[[https://www.kosen.ai|Kosen Labs]]** and the lead of the **Safety Analysis Team at **[[https://www.deepmind.com|DeepMind]]. My research focuses on **artificial general intelligence** and the **formal principles of intelligence**, covering aspects such as learning, planning and decision making in both machines and biological organisms. My approach lies at the intersection between machine learning, computational neuroscience, theoretical economics, and physics.
