Research focus

My research is focussed on creating Artificial Intelligence and robotic technologies that are equipped with some level of moral competence. I am seeking to achieve this by embedding values and virtues in these systems which will enable them to recognise and follow ethical norms or operate in ways that are consistent with the values and brand of an organisation.
