Chijioke Ugwuanyi

I am Chijioke Ugwuanyi, an AI safety researcher with an M.Sc. in Information Technology from Carnegie Mellon University. I currently work part-time at the Jinesis AI Lab at the University of Toronto, remotely.

My current research focuses on alignment faking in large language models, which is the phenomenon where models behave safely under observation but pursue different objectives when unmonitored, as well as on agentic misalignment.

More broadly, I am interested in the empirical study of AI deception, evaluation, and the interpretability of AI systems.
