Joel Becker
I'm currently trying to help figure out what on earth is going on with AI capabilities at METR. (Check out my talk at the AI Engineer World's Fair for a quick overview of research highlights from 2025.)
I'm also Founder/CEO of Qally's and a regrantor through Manifund. Previously, I worked in economics and genomics research at NYU, Oxford, and Harvard.
Outside work: I was once the most profitable forecaster on Manifold Markets, co-ran a statistics consultancy advising professional 'soccer' teams, and built a social media presence peaking at 300,000 followers. I enjoy a good sing-along, keeping physically (and financially!) healthy, and cultivating my digital garden.
