About Me
My name is Renn Su and I'm an undergraduate studying Computer Science with a focus on artificial intelligence and human-computer interaction at Stanford University. I conduct research at the intersection of human-computer interaction, machine learning, and algorithmic fairness. My work is primarily conducted within the Stanford HCI Group, advised by Prof. Michael Bernstein. As a SSR Fellow, I've also worked at ETH Zürich PEACH Lab with the support of Prof. April Wang. My interests include generative agents, simulations of large-scale social systems, and LLM value elicitation.
I'm excited about:
