I'm an AI researcher and team lead based in Spain. I work on AI that can be checked rather than trusted: explainable reasoning with Answer Set Programming, how language and embedding models represent logic and meaning, and the cost of making advanced AI safe.
The same rigour goes into a second line of work: protecting people from the abuse of high technology, including neurotechnology. That work lives under Human rights and neurolaws.org.
