Ben (Quan) Shi
Recent Princeton University '24 CS grad!
Hi, my name is Ben, and I’m a recent graduate of Princeton University where I received my undergraduate degree in computer science. I’m originally from Changsha, China, and moved to West Virginia in the 5th grade. I am fortunate to be advised by Professor Karthik Narasimhan, as well as Dr. Shunyu Yao. Previous I was an intern at Meta.
I’m broadly interested in demystifying and improving reasoning capabilities of AI, through mediums such as logic puzzles and coding questions. Evals are a big part of this: there needs to be more utility-based evals that return transferrable signals to downstream tasks. For both humans and AI alike!
My undergraduate thesis was on analyzing and improving LLM performance on competitive programming, where I received the Sigma Xi Book award for outstanding undergraduate research and publication record.
In my free time I love making and critiquing music. So much so that I built a generative AI pop music composition tool. I also love to produce music + sing.
