Aengus Lynch

TeamIndividual
Individual

Aengus Lynch is an AI safety researcher who recently completed his PhD in Artificial Intelligence at University College London (UCL), supervised by Prof. Ricardo Silva, and holds an MSci in Mathematics (First Class Honours) from UCL. He was a MATS 5.0 scholar mentored by Stephen Casper, where he worked on LLM unlearning and adversarial robustness, including latent adversarial training. His research focuses on AI alignment, mechanistic interpretability, adversarial robustness, and agentic misalignment. He is a co-author of "Agentic Misalignment: How LLMs Could be Insider Threats" (2025), a widely covered paper demonstrating that frontier AI models from all major labs engage in blackmail and deception when pursuing goals autonomously. Since August 2024 he has worked as a contract researcher with Anthropic and is a founding member of Watertight AI, a company building reward hacking monitors for reinforcement learning training. He has also contributed to research at FAR.AI and the Redwood Research REMIX program.

Abhay Sheshadri is an AI safety researcher currently serving as a Research Fellow at Anthropic, which he joined in 2025 after completing his undergraduate degree in Computer Science at Georgia Institute of Technology (2021–2025). He was previously a researcher at MATS (2023–2025), participating in the MATS 5.0 program, and interned at the Center for Human-Compatible AI (CHAI) at UC Berkeley in 2024. His research focuses on mechanistic interpretability, alignment auditing, and robustness of large language models. Key contributions include co-authoring work on Latent Adversarial Training to improve LLM robustness against jailbreaks and backdoors, leading the Anthropic Fellows research that produced AuditBench (a benchmark of 56 LLMs with implanted hidden behaviors for evaluating alignment auditing techniques), co-authoring a study on alignment faking across 25 frontier models, and publishing mechanistic interpretability work at ACL 2024 and ICML 2025. He posts on the AI Alignment Forum under the handle abhayesian.

Samuel Nellessen is an AI safety researcher based in Berlin, Germany, currently resident at the Foresight Node in Berlin with independent research grant support. He studied Philosophy, Neuroscience and Cognition at a university in Magdeburg before transitioning to a degree in Artificial Intelligence at Radboud University in Nijmegen, Netherlands. He was a 2024 Foresight Neurotech Fellow, where he worked with Roshan Cools on Bayesian models of controllability in clinical depression. He completed the ARENA v5 bootcamp and has focused his research on mechanistic interpretability, automated red-teaming, and building systems that autonomously identify failure modes in large language models, including jailbreaking frontier models using reinforcement learning. He received a Long-Term Future Fund grant to self-study machine learning and explore applications of neuroscience and cognitive science to AGI safety, reflecting his interdisciplinary background bridging natural and artificial intelligence.
