Iván Arcuschin
Independent Researcher working on Mechanistic Interpretability and Evals for AI Safety. He holds a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Buenos Aires, where he specialized in automatic test case generation for Android apps. He is currently a MATS fellow, where he is doing research on unfaithful chains of thought in LLMs. Previously he worked on InterpBench, a benchmark for evaluating interpretability methods.
Agustín Martinez Suñé
Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Oxford, working with the OXCAV group. He holds a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Buenos Aires, where he specialized in formal methods for the analysis of distributed systems. He is a former PIBBSS Fellow, where he began exploring the intersection of formal methods and machine learning to advance the development of verifiably safe AI systems.
