Hi, I'm Mrinal
Welcome to my corner of the internet where I dump my thoughts.
$ echo "The world is a level 99 game with no tutorial. If you know, you know."
About Me
I'm a Research Engineer currently exploring the territory of reinforcement learning and continual reasoning at Dyssonance AI. My superpower is that I look at a problem through an adversarial lens. My interests span across interpretability and misalignment of AI systems.
I occasionally mentor students navigating their first steps in ML or early career decisions in tech, it's my way of giving back to the communities I come from. If you're part of the UC or IIT system and want to chat about machine learning, research, or breaking into the industry, feel free to reach out at {first_name}.{last_name}07{at}gmail.com.
A Contrarian Take on the Alignment Problem
Why aligning superintelligence to 'human values' might be aiming at the wrong target, and what it could mean to build the values in before the knowledge.
