Einar Urdshals

Individual

Einar Urdshals is a Research Scientist at Timaeus, an AI safety research organization focused on Singular Learning Theory. He completed his PhD in theoretical physics at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden, where he studied dark matter-electron interactions in detector materials, defending in April 2024. Following his PhD, he transitioned into AI safety research, supported by a Long-Term Future Fund grant for mentored independent research and upskilling. His AI safety research spans interpretability, neural network compressibility, and trajectory modeling of language models; his most notable work applies Singular Learning Theory and the minimum description length principle to measure neural network complexity. He also participated in AI Safety Camp (AISC9, 2024) and Apart Research hackathons during his transition into the field.
