My research interests include the ethical and social issues of algorithmic decision-making at both individual and collective level. I’m also interested in studying AI from the point of view of epistemology and the philosophy of science (e.g. some topics of interest include the problem of induction, the problem-solving approach and\u00a0the notion of progress).
\nIn my past research, I was involved in different EU funded projects such as ThinkBIG<\/a> and AI4EU<\/a>. I contributed to the piloting of the European Ethics Guidelines for Trustworthy AI<\/a> released in 2019 by the High-Level Expert Group on AI. I co-founded the AI4EU Observatory on Society and AI<\/a> and coordinated the AI4EU Working Group<\/a>s on ELSEC AI. I co-organized the AI4EU workshop on “The Culture of Trustworthy AI. Public debate, education, practical learning<\/a>“, held in Venice on 2-3 September 2021<\/p>\n
