I am a 4th year Cognitive Science PhD student at UC Berkeley, advised by Alison Gopnik. I am also affiliated with Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research (BAIR). I am supported by the National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate (NDSEG) Fellowship. I received my BS in Cognitive Science with a Specialization in Computing from UCLA where I graduated with Departmental Honors and Cum Laude. At UCLA, I mainly worked with Tao Gao in the Visual Intelligence Lab and was awarded the Dean's Award for Life Science Research. I also had the opportunity to be a summer intern at Yale University working with Julian Jara-Ettinger in the Computational Social Cognition Lab. You can email me at adahmani [at] berkeley.edu |

My research is at the intersection of cognitive science and artificial intelligence, with a focus on human-centered AI. I apply insights from cognitive science to better understand, evaluate, and improve AI systems.
My work explores topics such as sycophancy, human-AI complementarity, curriculum learning, and exploration.
More broadly, I am interested in building AI systems that better align with human needs, values, and societal impacts.
