Artificial Social Intelligence
Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) has been growing at an unprecedented pace. Many of us have experienced a “ChatGPT moment” — a realization that AI will profoundly transform our lives. While numerous challenges and calls for improvement remain, there is little doubt that AI agents will play a central role in shaping our future. We argue,… Continue Reading Artificial Social Intelligence

Learning analytics that facilitate meaningful learning experiences
Abstract: The focus of education is shifting from outcomes to processes. How do learners make sense of new challenges, and how can such sense-making be identified and supported? In this talk, I will demonstrate how the use of learning analytics and digital trace analysis, coupled with innovative design and strong theoretical foundations, allows us to… Continue Reading Learning analytics that facilitate meaningful learning experiences

Fundamentals of Aligning General-Purpose AI – Job Talk
Abstract: The field of artificial intelligence (AI) is undergoing a paradigm shift, moving from neural networks trained for narrowly defined tasks (e.g., image classification and machine translation) to general-purpose models such as ChatGPT. These models are trained at unprecedented scales to perform a wide range of tasks, from providing travel recommendations to solving Olympiad-level math problems.… Continue Reading Fundamentals of Aligning General-Purpose AI – Job Talk

From Waitlists to Well-Being: An Analytical Approach to AI-Supported Mental Healthcare
Abstract: The growing burden of mental health disorders is straining healthcare systems, leading to long waitlists and delayed access to therapy. Such delays can worsen symptoms, increase dropout rates, and impose substantial societal costs. Advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI)—including supervised conversational agents—offer scalable opportunities to support patients during these waiting periods. We develop a multi-class,… Continue Reading From Waitlists to Well-Being: An Analytical Approach to AI-Supported Mental Healthcare

Robust and Actionable ML via Causality
Abstract: Artificial Intelligence is increasingly deployed in high-stakes fields such as healthcare, where two critical challenges emerge: models must generalize to real-world variations and their predictions must be actionable for decision-makers. The generalization challenge arises when AI is applied to data that differs from its training set, a phenomenon known as distribution shift. The actionability challenge… Continue Reading Robust and Actionable ML via Causality
