Sofia Jativa Vega wants to work together with Stuart Armstrong (from the Future of Humanity Institute) on developing methods for AI agents to infer human mental models and use those to predict human preferences. I have many disagreements with Stuart’s agenda, but overall trust his methodology and judgement, and have been following the research he has been posting online for a long time. Stuart was very excited about this opportunity, and Sofia seems to have the relevant background to make progress on these problems (with a PhD in neuroscience).
