I am Michael Timothy Bennett, a computer scientist with the Australian National University. My research explores intelligence from first principles, blending philosophical arguments, math proofs and experimental results. I won best paper awards at both the 2023 and 2024 conferences on artificial general intelligence, and my exploits have been covered in Newsweek, Quillette, The Conversation, and by Sabine Hossenfelder.
I began my career as a musician. I co founded and was COO of Eigen Technologies in London. I worked in game development across four continents on well known franchises including The Sims, Sniper Elite and Total War.
My path to research has been circuitous. Were it not for the fact that admission to a conservatory depends upon musical ability rather than grades, I might never have attended university at all. Now I hold degrees in music from Queensland Conservatorium, management science from London Business School, and computer science from The Australian National University. This unconventional path has cultivated breadth of expertise that has proven rather helpful for transdisciplinary artificial general intelligence research.
