Ar_Douillard · x · 2026-11-11
Google Scholar emailed DeepMind research scientist Arthur Douillard asking him to pick which of two "duplicate" profiles to keep — but the other profile belongs to Anthropic interpretability researcher Arthur Conmy, a completely different person.
- Conmy: 12,443 citations, AGI Safety / Interpretability
- Douillard: 9,097 citations, continual learning
Douillard joked about "souping" the profiles together.
