Excited to launch Principia, a nonprofit research organisation at the intersection of deep learning theory and AI safety.

Our goal is to develop theory for modern machine learning systems that can help us understand complex network behaviors, including those critical for AI safety and alignment.

News from central Jersey: I'm running to represent New Jersey's 12th Congressional District.

By entering the fray, I hope to bring ideas of repairing our frayed republic. Not only to defend it in 2026, but to build something stronger, for generations to come!

I am so honoured to have been selected as one of the Jane Coffin Childs Fund fellows this year!

Very pleased to share our recent work, in which we use LLMs for automated discovery of interpretable models of animal behavior 🪰🐀🕵️‍♀️ that take the form of Python programs 🐍

See below for a summary of key results by
@pcastr.bsky.social!

Cognitive models of behavior are a key part of neuroscience. But discovering them is hard!

In new work from Google DeepMind Neuroscience and collaborators @hhmijanelia.bsky.social, we demonstrate an approach that uses LLMs and large datasets to discover models automatically.

one of the most intriguing projects i've been involved in: automated scientific discovery in an area (human/animal RL) I've been working on forever. can an LLM do the job of my grad students? if it is backed up by super smart scientists incl @pcastr.bsky.social @neurokim.bsky.social & kevin miller
