His work proposes a 'Consciousness Monitoring Theory' (CMT), linking consciousness and free will to the ability to learn and apply coherent networks of theories. This framework draws from cognitive neuroscience (e.g., Dehaene's C0/C1/C2 levels of consciousness) and critiques classical data-driven AI approaches.
Key trends in his research include theory-driven AI development, ethical cognition in machines, and the philosophical implications of self-monitoring systems. He emphasizes the current limitations of AI in mastering axiological, social, and ethical theories beyond narrow physical contexts.
He actively contributes to interdisciplinary seminars, such as the 'Artificial Intelligence in the World of People' series, which addresses humanistic, ethical, and legal challenges in digital technology development.
