Hi, I'm Prakrat.
I was born and raised in India and then moved to Berkeley where I’m studying math and computer science.
Now:
- Evaluating persuasion capabilities in LLMs. Advised by Kellin Perline and Matt Kowal (FAR.AI)
- Organizing Berkeley's 1st Spikeball Competition.
Previously, I interned as a Software Developer at Amazon, tried to make a consumer productivity app with my friend Ady, and organized a retreat for California AI Safety groups. On campus, I'm a member of Machine Learning @ Berkeley and the Berkeley AI Safety Initiative. I also help teach the biggest (and best) class at Berkeley.
I enjoy cool math proofs, making machines learn (to behave nicely), and random psychology facts. I read, throw frisbees, and listen to house music in my free time.
