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

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