Personnel: Ajeya Cotra at METR (Researcher)

Verdictpartial85%
1 check · 4/9/2026

The source confirms that Ajeya Cotra works at METR and describes her role in technical work (threat modeling and risk assessment). However, the source lists her title as 'Technical Staff' rather than 'Researcher', and provides no explicit start date. The record claims a 2025 start date, but the source only shows a publication/update date of January 15, 2026, which does not confirm when she began. The role description is partially aligned but the exact title differs, and the start date is unverifiable from this source.
