Jaiden Fairoze

Bio

I'm a fifth-year PhD student in Computer Science at UC Berkeley. I'm very fortunate to be advised by Sanjam Garg . I'm also a Visiting Researcher at FAIR, Meta Superintelligence Labs. Previously, I've worked at Google DeepMind and Microsoft Research. Before Berkeley, I completed my MSc and BSc at the University of Melbourne.

Mission. I strive to develop technology that guarantees security, privacy, and safety for people before all else.

Research areas. I'm broadly interested in cryptography and machine learning. Most recently, I've been working on AI alignment topics including generative watermarking and jailbreak attacks. Previously, I worked on secure messaging, practical secret sharing, and blockchain forensics.
