Hi, I'm Fazl Barez
AI safety and Interpretability researcher.
I’m a Research Fellow at Torr Vision Group (TVG), University of Oxford, where I lead safety research. Additionally, I’m a Research Scientist (consultant) at Anthropic and advisor at Apart Research. My affiliations include two University of Cambridge institutions: the Centre for the Study of Existential Risk (CSER) and the Kruger AI Safety Lab (KASL), as well as the Future of Life Institute. I’m a member of ELLIS (European Laboratory for Learning and Intelligent Systems), a pan-European AI network of excellence. I also serve as an Adjunct Research Fellow at the Digital Trust centre (Singapore AI Safety Institute) at Nanyang Technological University, and a Visiting Researcher at the School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh.
Previously, I worked as Technology and Security Policy Fellow at RAND Corporation, on Interpretability at Amazon and The DataLab, recommender systems at Huawei, and on building a finance tool for budget management for economic scenario forecasting at RBS Group.
