Shashank Gupta

I'm a researcher on the Aristo team at the Allen Institute for AI (AI2) in Seattle.

Broadly, I am interested in building general-purpose AI agents that can:
(1) reason about complex problems through natural language rationalization,
(2) faithfully express their uncertainty in their knowledge and reasoning, and
(3) continuously improve through self-reflection and human feedback.

My current research focus is on AI for Scientific Discovery. I am particularly interested in AI for Math (e.g., Automated Theorem Proving, better foundation models for Math), building agents for finding supporting/contrary evidence from literature, and retrieval-augmented and memory architectures for supporting these use cases.
