About me

I am a Researcher at Inria’s REGALIA project and a Senior Research Fellow at the University of Oxford’s Institute for Ethics in AI. I am also Lead Writer of the forthcoming 2026 International AI Safety Report (find our first Key Update here) and Co-Investigator of the UKRI funded project CHAILD.

My main research focus is on agency, autonomy and human oversight, though I am also interested in the governance of AI more broadly. Current projects examine: (i) meaningful human oversight and control for general-purpose AI, (ii) the science of evaluation, including problem specification; (iii) AI as bureaucratic decision-making, analysing rule-boundedness, discretion, and consistency and their implications for legitimacy and accountability; and (iv) agency and autonomy.

I hold a DPhil in Philosophy and an MSt in Philosophy of Physics from the University of Oxford as well as a Master’s and Bachelor’s degree in Physics from Freie Universität Berlin. I also hold a Certificate for Data Science and AI from LeWagon.
