As a part of the DCODE Network, my PhD research is aimed at rethinking design, creating new pathways to the future. Under the umbrella of 'Trusted Interactions,' my research explored AI-powered Digital Twins, as an instance of predictive systems. Investigating ways design can address potential power imbalances between people and predictive, decentralized systems in shaping futures. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme… Show more As a part of the DCODE Network, my PhD research is aimed at rethinking design, creating new pathways to the future.
