Nancy Fulda earned her PhD from Brigham Young University in 2019 and is currently the director of BYU's DRAGN Lab, a research group that studies machine learning, knowledge representation, and societal impacts of generative AI. In 2024 she was named one of Utah's top 100 AI professionals.
Recent publications from Dr. Fulda's research group include Out of One, Many: Using Language Models to Simulate Human Samples and A Tale of Two Cultures: Comparing Interpersonal Disclosure Norms on Twitter. Ongoing lines of research focus on the analysis and improvement of large-scale language models; the development of machine learning algorithms for neuromorphic computing hardware; and the application of neural programming interfaces toward knowledge grounding and explainable AI.
In addition to her academic work, Dr. Fulda enjoys writing science fiction. She has been nominated for the both the Hugo and Nebula Awards and has written on request for David Brin, TOR Books, and MIT’s Technology Review, as well as for the Dark Expanse space strategy game. She is the mother of six children.
