Paul Bricman

Paul Bricman is a Romanian AI safety researcher and entrepreneur who co-founded Straumli AI (later Noema Research), where he serves as CEO. His work focuses on AI safety infrastructure — developing cryptographic and technical tools to help developers, auditors, and regulators coordinate AI oversight, including protocols for benchmarking dangerous capabilities, latent differential privacy, and model tamper-resistance. He led the Interdisciplinary Investigation of DebateGPT project at AI Safety Camp Virtual 2023, training language models to debate via reinforcement learning self-play as an approach to AI alignment. He received a Long-Term Future Fund grant (stipend and compute) to conduct research on AI safety via debate in the context of LLMs. In May 2024, Open Philanthropy recommended a $400,000 grant to Straumli to develop a benchmark for the cyberoffense capabilities of LLM agents. He studied at the University of Groningen and previously co-authored deep learning research with Radu Tudor Ionescu at the University of Bucharest.
