Jialu Gao

Data Scientist at Microsoft AI

I work on large language model evaluation. My broader interests span trustworthy AI, generative models, computer vision, and robot learning.

I received my M.S. in Robotics from Carnegie Mellon University, where I worked with Prof. Fernando De la Torre. Before that, I earned my B.E. in Computer Science and Technology from Tsinghua University, where I worked with Huazhe Xu.
