Felix Chen

Hello! I'm a researcher at Princeton's Center for Information Technology Policy, broadly interested in the intersection of technology, society, and governance. Previously, I was a member of the Allen Lab for Democracy Renovation, explored academic chatbots with the Public Interest Tech Lab, and interned at Project Liberty, where I worked on decentralized social technologies.

I received an A.B. from Harvard College in computer science and government. During my time there, I analyzed municipal data practices and their effects on constituent trust, and was advised by Danielle Allen and Uma Ilavarasan.

I'm interested in examining societal impacts of artificial intelligence, technology-enabled access to justice, and digital public infrastructure. I also have an interest in the field of digital humanities, in particular toward increasing the accessibility of the Classics. Some of my previous projects are accessible here.
