A Bit About Me
I am a postdoc at the University of Kent's Department of Psychology, funded by the Leverhulme Trust, as part of the Multidimensional Trust in Moral Machines team. There I research the social epistemology of AI and how AI fits into our existing concept of trust.
Formerly, I was an SNF postdoc at the University of Zürich on the project "Dual-Character Concepts: Bridging the Descriptive and the Normative", and my PhD was on the philosophy of philosophy at the University of St Andrews.
​
My main areas of research are experimental ethics, philosophy of language, and epistemology. Plus, I have never found a methodological question I do not like. Currently, I am researching the extent normatively-loaded interpersonal categories – such as trust and empathy – apply to AI. I am also exploring ways to empirically measure the distinct epistemic pathways of showing vs telling in moral advice, pathways that have been conflated in armchair philosophy, experimental philosophy, and psychology.
