Xizhi Xiao | 肖茜之
I’m an undergraduate student at Peking University (‘26) , majoring in artificial intelligence. I joined the Tong Class (an AGI program founded by Prof. Song-Chun Zhu), being a member and the monitor in the class of 2021. I'm affiliated with the PKU Cognitive Reasoning Lab led by Prof. Yixin Zhu. I had a great time working as a research intern at the Beijing Institute for General Artificial Intelligence (BIGAI).
For the 2024-2025 academic year, I’m a visiting research intern at Harvard Computation, Cognition, and Development Lab, advised by Prof. Tomer Ullman and Dr. Peng Qian.
I have broad interests in artificial intelligence, cognitive science, social psychology, and neuroscience. My research focuses on exploring the underlying mechanism of human social cognition and engineering machine social intelligence to build socially intelligent systems that can interact with humans safely. Presently, I focus on modeling normative concepts such as ownership and morality.
Outside of science, I enjoy dancing, baking, and watching movies and documentaries.
