Dave Epstein.

I am a member of technical staff at Anthropic. I received my PhD from UC Berkeley, advised by Alexei Efros and supported by the PD Soros Fellowship. Before that, I studied computer science at Columbia, where I worked with Carl Vondrick. My interests are in multimodal generative modeling.
