Andy Liu

I am a second-year PhD student at the Language Technologies Institute within Carnegie Mellon University’s School of Computer Science, advised by Mona Diab and Daniel Fried. Before joining LTI, I graduated with a B.S. in Math and Computer Science from Harvey Mudd College, where I worked with Calden Wloka and Heather Zinn Brooks.

I’m broadly interested in evaluations, social intelligence, and value pluralism, especially as they relate to language models. Some specific subquestions I’m currently interested in include:

• How can we evaluate and improve language models in more interactive settings?
• How can we better control language agents’ behavior according to the preferences of diverse principals?
• How can we best evaluate social intelligence and theory of mind in language technologies?
