Jibang Wu
I am a PhD student at the Sigma Lab@UChicago, advised by Prof. Haifeng Xu. Prior to UChicago, I received my BA/MS degrees in CS from UVA in 2019, where I worked on recommendation algorithms with Prof. Hongning Wang.
My current research lies at the interface between game theory, learning theory and optimization, with the primary focus on modeling and solving multi-agent decision-making problems under complex, unknown environment. More broadly, I aim to advance the design principles and approaches of intelligent systems towards strategic alignment — a concept centered on aligning the interests of all stakeholders to achieve mutually beneficial outcomes.
Towards this end, I am interested in developing practical techniques to 1) build incentive-aware AI agents with strategic intelligence and rationalizable behaviors; 2) align the economic incentives of users, model developers and data providers for more sustainable AI ecosystems.
I am on the academic job market 2024-2025.
