NoteThe source confirms Richard Ngo's identity and his past employment at DeepMind in a safety-related role. However, several fields are unverifiable: (1) The organization is stated as 'DeepMind' in the source, not 'Google DeepMind' — while Google acquired DeepMind, the source uses the shorter name and doesn't explicitly state the full corporate entity; (2) His role is described as 'research engineer on the AGI safety team', not precisely 'AI Safety Researcher' — these are similar but not identical titles; (3) The source provides no dates (startDate: 2020, endDate: 2022 are completely unverifiable from this excerpt). The record is partially confirmed in person and organization, but role title and dates cannot be verified from the source.
