Agentic systems for sustained human–AI collaboration
I explore how people and AI can work together over weeks and months on complex problems in research, design, and education.
Current Work
- Agentic design. Can agentic AI tackle complex, ill-defined design problems? I develop long-horizon design agents and benchmarks to understand whether AI can design, how it designs, and what that means for design as a practice.
- Co-developing education with AI. Can we develop and teach a course with a team of AI agents? I work with specialised AI agents on course planning, didactics, writing, and lecturing, and study how this changes my teaching practice.
- Understanding human–AI collaboration. What happens when humans and AI work together over weeks and months? I use AI to analyse the digital traces of our work and understand how our collaboration evolves over time.
