Hao Liu


I'm an incoming Assistant Professor of Machine Learning at Carnegie Mellon University, starting in Fall 2025.

I'm currently a senior research scientist at Google DeepMind.

Previously, I completed my Ph.D. in Computer Science at Berkeley, advised by Professor Pieter Abbeel. I completed my undergraduate studies in Computer Science at UESTC. I also spent two years part-time at Google as part of the Brain team.

My research interests include fundamental problems in deep learning, neural networks, learning objectives, and solving superintelligence.
