Human-Centred AI & Creative AI Researcher

I am a tenured CNRS researcher at the Institute of Intelligent Systems and Robotics (ISIR), Sorbonne Université. My research addresses how people can gain more agency and control when interacting with AI-based systems. The creative and cultural fields are my primary application domain, both as a researcher studying the impact of AI to inform public policy recommendations, and as a practitioner myself. My background is in applied mathematics (MSc) and computer science (PhD), and I approach technological interaction as inherently sociotechnical, drawing on the social sciences and humanities.
