Biography
I investigate the complex dynamics between artificial intelligence and society, with a particular focus on marginalized communities and their experiences with AI technologies. Through the lens of techno-social frameworks like actor-network theory, my research examines how individual and collective agency evolves within human-AI interactions.
At the (ISS), I explore the human-AI dance in adopting generative AI technologies such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude. My research centers on the everyday use of generative AI and its impacts on citizens - particularly migrants, women, and people with disabilities - through the lens of AI fairness and epistemic justice.
My work combines rigorous ethnographic methods with a commitment to digital equity and inclusive innovation, focusing on how these groups adapt and utilize AI technologies to meet their unique needs.
I am also a part of AI REACT cluster at ÃÀÅ®¸£ÀûµçÓ°ÔºÎçÒ¹.
