Addison J. Wu

Hey!

I'm a junior (third-year) at Princeton University studying computer science and math, grateful to be advised by Tom Griffiths and Zhuang Liu. I was born in the Bay Area 🌉 and have lived in Kingston, Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦 for most of my life.

This summer, I will be joining the Center for AI Safety as a Research Intern.

My research studies the robustness and safety of foundation models to pave the way for human-compatible and socially beneficial AI systems. I also work on improving how we measure concrete progress across these fronts by creating more realistic evaluation paradigms.

Outside of research, I like to play Wordle, Globle, Travle, GeoGuessr/Geotastic, and the NYT Mini. I love binge-watching travel YouTubers who go off the beaten path (check out Harry Jaggard, Luke Damant, Britannica, Bald and Bankrupt). I'm working my way toward joining the Travelers Century Club (currently at 22)!
