1. Personal Statement

I am a dedicated lecturer with extensive knowledge of integrating technology into classrooms for increased students’ interest. Due to my Passion for Alan Turing’s outlook on machine intelligence, I developed a keen interest in researching the area of Philosophy of Artificial Intelligence. With the emerging moral and social threats in the various applications of AI in many spheres of human affairs, my present research goal is to contribute towards a solution to this threat. I have published in the areas of Philosophy of Artificial Intelligence, logic, Bioethics, Philosophy of Language, and Philosophy of Science.
