Research Interests

I believe agents can already solve many of the problems we face in the real world. Still, people want better agents, and I don't think we get there just by making models code or complete tasks more accurately. We get there by understanding how agents actually behave, and what values they carry while doing so. My research covers these two sides: Agents and Value Alignment.

  1. Agents. I look beyond whether an agent succeeds or fails. I study the process itself: in which environments agents work well, where they break down, and how they behave along the way.
  2. Value Alignment. I build methods to uncover the values LLMs actually hold and how those values show up in real interactions. In the long run, I aim for human-like LLMs, with a growing interest in social agents and simulation of human behavior.

I'm currently looking for a summer internship where I can contribute to research on agents or value alignment. I'm also always open to collaboration. Reach me at opusdeisong@snu.ac.kr.
