WICI Talk with Peter Lewis

Aspects of Social Intelligence and What We Can Learn from Modelling Them

WICI welcomes Dr. Peter Lewis from Ontario Technical University, where he holds a Canada Research Chair in Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence and is the Associate Dean Research and Graduate Studies in the Faculty of Business and Information Technology

Dr. Lewis’s research advances both foundational and applied aspects of trustworthy, reflective, and socially intelligent systems. Drawing on extensive experience applying Artificial Intelligence (AI) commercially, he is interested in where AI meets society, and how to help that relationship work well. Dr. Lewis is also an Honorary Senior Research Fellow in the School of Computer Science at the University of Birmingham, UK.
