Bio
Tyler Tracy is a Member of Technical Staff at Redwood Research, based in Berkeley, California, where he focuses on high-stakes AI control research. Before entering AI safety, he worked as a software engineer for approximately five years. He joined the MATS (ML Alignment & Theory Scholars) program, where he began collaborating with Redwood Research on AI control, which led to a stipend-funded extension to continue that work. His most notable contribution is co-authoring "Ctrl-Z: Controlling AI Agents via Resampling," described as the largest and most intricate study of AI control techniques to date, introducing resample protocols that reduce the success rate of adversarial attacks from 58% to 7%. His research interests span control protocols, model organisms, scheming and deception detection, and AI safety strategy. He is also a mentor at Pivotal Research and serves as a mentor in the Redwood Research stream of the MATS program.
