Hi! I work on technical AI safety at Anthropic.

I’m also on a long-term leave from New York University where I’m officially an Associate Professor of Data Science, Linguistics, and Computer Science and the ML² Group, and the CILVR Lab. I also led the Alignment Research Group during 2022-24.

I earned my PhD in 2016 for work on early neural network models for text at the Stanford NLP Group and Stanford Linguistics, supervised by Chris Potts and Chris Manning.

I think you should join Giving What We Can.

If we haven’t been in contact previously, please look through this FAQ before emailing me. You can reach me at bowman@nyu.edu.

I’m on X (Twitter) as @sleepinyourhat.
