Hi, I'm Camila! I study math and music at Stanford.
I am interested in understanding properties of language models and making AI better for society. I currently work on this as a MATS fellow with Neel Nanda. I also work in the Stanford NLP group with Jing Huang and Chris Potts.
I enjoy playing violin, writing/listening to contemporary classical music, teas, vintage clothing, ethics, and many other things.Recent updates:
