About Chris Lakin
I hunt bounties for people influencing frontier AI — burnout, conflict avoidance, agency.
I write here on substack, and tweet @chrislakin.
I used to be like the people I write about. I unlearned it.
Outside of my work, I host weird events, matchmake my friends, and spend time with Ha.
Previously, I worked on boundaries for AI alignment, a metascience non-profit, and physics at Carnegie Mellon.
