Philosopher of AI, Science and Technology
Artificial intelligence is forcing us to reconsider what intelligence actually is.
Group Product Manager of Responsible AI at Microsoft
Researcher in Philosophy, Cognitive Science and AI at Linköping University in Sweden
Former head of Responsible AI at Twitch
My work develops a philosophical account of how science and technology emerge from structures of human cognition. It challenges the divide between scientific practice and humanistic accounts of meaning and life by showing their common origin.
AI brings this into focus. AI does not stand apart from human intelligence - it extends it. For that reason, it is not beyond our control, but open to understanding and governance.
At Microsoft, I translate this perspective into practice by building software for safe, secure and responsible AI.

Artificial intelligence is changing the question of intelligence
We usually ask how closely artificial intelligence can approximate human intelligence. I approach the problem from the opposite direction: What does our ability to create artificial intelligence reveal about the structure of human intelligence itself?
My research traces scientific abstraction and artificial intelligence back to more basic structures of perception, embodiment, invariance, and consciousness. This provides a different way of understanding both what AI is and what responsibility for it requires.
