Preparing for AI R&D Automation: Scalable Oversight and Hard Benchmarks.

I am a Staff Research Scientist at Google DeepMind (a magical place), working on AI.

Previously, I was an assistant professor at the University of Cambridge. Before that, I was a researcher in the Visual Geometry Group and a research fellow at Balliol College.

I take great enjoyment from researching and building things, mostly with computers.

A masterfully drawn cartoon depiction of Samuel hiking cheerfully in the mountains. In the background, three gulls hover in an ecologically implausible formation above snowcapped mountains. Samuel carries a stick and wears a knapsack on his back of the kind that is only used to illustrate the Knapsack Problem. The image is signed skillfully, but illegibly. It's the kind of signature that conveys a profound passion for the digital form.
