Profile: https://flows.cv/carolynqu

Recent graduate from Stanford University, where I completed my Bachelor's in Symbolic Systems (Human-Centered AI) and Master's in Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence).

Broadly, I’m passionate about understanding and building interpretable human-centered technology. My current interests include: Understanding the intersection between computational social science and LLM evaluation and applying cognitive and psychological frameworks of intelligence and consciousness to understand bias in AI models.
