Hi! I'm Allen - a generalist engineer. My recent focus has been on understanding the mechanistic interpretability of neural networks. My primary interest is in advancing the safety of AI systems, with a specific emphasis on mitigating potential risks associated with AI warfare.

Proudly served security staff and chief assistant to the former commander of Air Force in Taiwan (later Secretary of Defense).

Outside of work, I 💛 rock climbing / mma / snowboarding.
