I’m Ruchira, a PhD Researcher in NLP and AI at the CoAStaL Lab, University of Copenhagen, supervised by Dr. Anders Søgaard. Currently visiting the LRE Lab at ETH Zurich.

I’m also affiliated with the Centre for Philosophy of AI, where I think about the broader societal and ethical dimensions of the technology I study every day.

Research

I work on the science of AI evaluation, with a focus on connecting technical model assessment to real-world deployment and use. For more details, see Research Outlook and Research Output.

More recently, I’ve been thinking about what happens to evaluation in multi-agent systems. Most evaluation frameworks assume a single model, yet multi-agent deployments are becoming the norm. Here are slides from a recent talk on the topic.

Affiliations

• Visiting Researcher, LRE Lab, ETH Zurich (2026–Present). Working on efficient evaluation for AI systems.
• Working Member, EvalEval Coalition (2025–Present). Contributing to community efforts around robust and responsible AI evaluation.
• Venture Fellow, Creator Fund (2025–Present). Exploring the intersection of research and entrepreneurship.
• Open Science Lead, Cohere Labs (2024–Present). Organising talks, socials, and meetups to support open-source AI research.

Teaching

Teaching Assistant, NLP Course, University of Copenhagen (2023–Present). Two years in, it remains one of the most rewarding parts of my PhD. There’s something genuinely satisfying about helping students get their first foothold in the field.
