Research Interests
Recent research:
The research focuses on the intersection of philosophy, technology, and political governance, examining how artificial intelligence reshapes human understanding and societal structures. A central theme is the critical evaluation of intelligence versus consciousness, proposing that philosophical inquiry serves as a vital tool for navigating the digital age. By exploring prompt design as a modern form of maieutics, the work emphasizes the necessity of conceptual clarity and critical thinking to address the challenges of instrumental rationality and moral relativism.
Furthermore, the research investigates the integration of artificial intelligence into political decision-making. It analyzes how algorithmic systems, when applied to governance, may prioritize goal-oriented efficiency—reminiscent of Machiavellian realism—often at the expense of ethical deliberation. This inquiry extends to the pedagogical realm, advocating for a robust ethical framework in professional training. By fostering responsible questioning and a commitment to social change, the research seeks to reorient philosophical discourse toward contemporary problems, ultimately contributing to the pursuit of a good life in an increasingly technological society.
