About

I received my B.Sc. in Computer Science and Technology, with a minor in Statistics, from Tsinghua University. My research interests included quantum computing, algorithms, and complexity.

Recently, my research focus has shifted to large language models, and I am currently conducting research at MiMo. I am interested in auto-research, interpretability, and—more importantly—safe self-improvement (beyond my current research).
