Andreas Haupt is a Human-Centered AI Postdoctoral Fellow jointly appointed in Stanford’s Economics and Computer Science Departments, where he is advised by Erik Brynjolfsson and Sanmi Koyejo. He studies the elicitation and aggregation of human preferences in machine learning systems, including questions of privacy, competition, and consumer protection. He develops and applies methods of microeconomic theory, structural econometrics, and reinforcement learning to these domains. He earned a Ph.D. in Engineering-Economic Systems from MIT in February 2025 with a committee evenly split between Economics and Computer Science. Prior to that, he completed two master’s degrees at the University of Bonn—first in Mathematics (2017) and then in Economics (2018), with distinction. He has worked on competition enforcement for the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Competition and the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, and taught high school mathematics and computer science in Germany before his Ph.D. He remains committed to education and scholarship, most recently as a co-author of an upcoming textbook on Machine Learning from Human Preferences.
