Zach Furman

TeamIndividual
Individual
Endorsed byNone yet

Zach Furman is a PhD student at the University of Melbourne working on singular learning theory and the mathematical foundations of deep learning, advised by Liam Hodgkinson and collaborating closely with Daniel Murfet and Timaeus. His research aims to make AI safer by understanding how neural networks work using tools from mathematics and physics, with a focus on developmental interpretability. He holds an undergraduate degree in mathematics and computer science from Boston University, and prior to his PhD he worked in rocket engineering (embedded software, electrical, and aerospace engineering) and briefly conducted machine learning interpretability and condensed matter physics research. He is affiliated with FAR.AI as a researcher, where he contributed to the "Eliciting Latent Predictions from Transformers with the Tuned Lens" paper. He also co-authored "The Loss Kernel: A Geometric Probe for Deep Learning Interpretability" and a position paper on singular learning theory for AI safety. He received a $40,000 grant from the Long-Term Future Fund in October 2023 to support six months of research in Daniel Murfet's group at the University of Melbourne, with results targeting publication at academic ML conferences.

Philip Quirke (also known as PQ) is an AI safety researcher and Research Lead at Martian who made a notable career transition into AI safety from a background in software engineering, Agile coaching, and business analysis. He entered the field through Apart Research's hackathon and fellowship program, which he describes as a transformation, and subsequently served as a Research Project Manager at FAR.AI. His research focuses on mechanistic interpretability, including a widely-cited 2023 paper on how transformers perform integer addition and collaborative work on planning representations in recurrent neural networks trained to play Sokoban. He has co-authored papers on AI regulation and alternative AI architectures, and has produced five papers while securing approximately $90,000 in research grants. He received an LTFF grant to support a six-month career pivot into AI safety and alignment research, and has been involved with AI Safety Australia and New Zealand.

Bryce Meyer is a software engineer and the primary maintainer of TransformerLens, the leading open-source library for mechanistic interpretability research on GPT-style language models. TransformerLens was originally created by Neel Nanda and allows researchers to load 50+ open-source language models and inspect their internal activations, making it the de facto standard tool for mechanistic interpretability work at organizations including Anthropic, Meta Research, Redwood Research, and Apollo Research. Meyer has maintained the library with a track record of consistent contributions, rapid iteration to support newly released models, and active community support via a weekly live-coding stream in the Open Source Mechanistic Interpretability Slack. He received a $50,000 grant from the Long-Term Future Fund in 2023 to build and enhance open-source mechanistic interpretability tooling, followed by a $90,000 year-long LTFF stipend to serve as TransformerLens's primary maintainer. He is also the president of Pomelo Productions, an independent software development studio based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and a self-taught developer with many years of professional engineering experience.

Johannes C. Mayer

TeamIndividual
Individual
Endorsed byNone yet

Johannes C. Mayer is an independent AI alignment researcher and game developer who has dedicated his career to addressing AI existential risk. He participates in the AI safety research community through LessWrong and the AI Alignment Forum, where he has published over 76 posts on topics including structural approaches to alignment, computational models of intelligence, and world model interpretability. He completed the MATS Summer 2022 cohort under the mentorship of Evan Hubinger, and has served as a mentor for the Supervised Program for Alignment Research (SPAR) at UC Berkeley. His research agenda focuses on translating intuitive concepts such as goals, wanting, and abilities into formal computational frameworks, and on constraining AI reasoning processes structurally rather than purely specifying outcome-level objectives. He received a grant from the Long-Term Future Fund to pursue this research on turning intuitions about intelligence into concepts applicable to computational systems.
