Tim R. Davidson

I am a PhD researcher at EPFL working on fundamental machine learning for real-world applications (reliable magic!). I hold degrees from New York University and the University of Amsterdam in Mathematics, Theoretical Economics, and Artificial Intelligence.

Currently, I'm exploring ways to use agentic systems to generate scalable, diverse, and explainable synthetic data as a student researcher at Google.

At times I share my thoughts on Twitter/X (@im_td) and Bluesky (@imtd)
