Ajeya works on forecasting how rapidly-improving AI might impact the world and how we could ensure that impact is positive. Before this, she led Open Phil’s program area on technical AI safety, and before that, she worked on several research projects, including estimating the expected returns to funding across different GCR sub-areas, thinking about how worldview diversification could be implemented in budget allocation, estimating the social value of creating a marginal unit of housing in cities like SF, and investigating whether cage free housing systems are really better for hens. Ajeya joined Open Philanthropy in July 2016 as a Research Analyst. She has a B.S. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from UC Berkeley, where she founded the Effective Altruists of Berkeley student group and taught a course on effective altruism.
