معرفی
Jakob Stenseke is an Affiliated Researcher in the Practical Philosophy Department at Lund University, working at the intersection of ethics, cognitive science, and artificial intelligence. His research focuses on the philosophical challenges of implementing ethical frameworks in autonomous systems, particularly robots and AI.
Stenseke's research interests center on machine ethics and the creation of artificial moral agents. His work explores how ethical theories can be translated into machine implementations, examining responsibility frameworks for autonomous systems, the possibility of artificial empathy, and philosophical questions around AI governance. His research integrates insights from moral philosophy, cognitive science, and robotics to address the practical challenges of building ethically-aware machines.
His recent publications (2025) reveal a cohesive research program examining the ethical implementation challenges in AI systems. These works span theoretical examinations of moral agency in machines, practical implementation challenges, and societal implications of autonomous technologies. Key themes include responsibility allocation, moral decision-making in artificial agents, and the philosophical foundations of machine ethics.
Stenseke is actively involved in multiple research projects including 'How to build nice robots: ethics from theory to machine implementations' (2020-2024), 'Instrumental and normative expectations in a social robot' (2020-2023), and 'Ethics for autonomous systems/AI' funded by Marianne och Marcus Wallenbergs Stiftelse (2020-2024). He collaborates with researchers such as Balkenius, von Gerber, Petersson, and Tagesson across philosophy and technical disciplines.
He is affiliated with the CogComlab and the Cognition & Philosophy VR Lab at Lund University, participating in interdisciplinary research that combines philosophical inquiry with experimental approaches to cognition and technology. His work contributes to Lund University's Profile Area: Natural and Artificial Cognition (NAC).
