History and Philosophy of Science

I am a PhD candidate specialised in feminist philosophy and social epistemology, working on AI. In my project, I investigate feminist/decolonial approaches of AI uses and designs through (notably) people's phenomenological experiences. I am particularly interested to explore technical concepts in AI (such as explainability, transparency) with more socially-oriented epistemic interpretations.  
As I am equally trained in social sciences, I also conduct ethnographic work to investigate scientists' practices surrounding AI in a research centre in London to integrate my research in the 'practical turn' in philosophy of science; I am therefore particularly interested in field philosophy, or conceptual engineering.
