I am a first-year MSc student in Artificial Intelligence at the University of Amsterdam. I am broadly interested in Reinforcement Learning, Logic, (Algorithmic) Game Theory, and AI Alignment. I am currently working on goal misgeneralization and specification misgeneralization in RL with Usman Anwar at the Krueger AI Safety Lab, University of Cambridge. My prior research work includes learning theory and online learning, and more broadly theoretical computer science applied to ML.
Before my MSc, I graduated with a BSc in Mathematics and Computer Science for AI at Bocconi University. I was advised by Prof. Marek Elias, working on learning theory and theory of algorithms. The paper has been accepted at ICLR 2024. During my BSc, I spent the Spring โ23 semester at Georgia Tech, supported with a full-ride scolarship.
I am always open and excited to collaborate on projects. If you are interested in working together, have a quick chat, or anything else, please reach out! You can e-mail me at karim dot abdel dot sadek at student dot uva dot nl
