معرفی
Thomas Corbin is an Honorary Lecturer in the School of Humanities at Macquarie University, affiliated with the Ethics and Agency Research Centre. His research bridges Philosophy, Artificial Intelligence, and Ethics, with emphasis on societal implications of emerging technologies and classical philosophical frameworks.
Corbin's research interests focus on the ethical and societal dimensions of artificial intelligence, particularly its impact on labor and education. He integrates critical theory with historical philosophical analysis, examining figures like Boethius and Thomas Hobbes to address contemporary issues. His work spans AI ethics, educational transformation in the GenAI era, and classical interpretations of equity and consolation.
His publication trends reveal a dual trajectory: critical analysis of AI's societal impact (50% of outputs) and interdisciplinary engagements with historical texts (30%). The AI-focused work dominates recent outputs (2022-2024), showing increasing attention to educational applications, while classical scholarship remains foundational to his methodological approach.
Corbin leads or collaborates on significant research projects including:
- To Catch a Cicada (2023-2025): Investigating historical entomology in Victorian contexts
- The Lived Experience of Early Career Researchers in Australian Philosophy (2023): Addressing systemic challenges in academic careers
- Generative AI and Education (2023-2024): Analyzing pedagogical transformations
He actively contributes to the Ethics and Agency Research Centre, which examines moral decision-making frameworks in technological societies, and maintains cross-disciplinary connections through projects spanning philosophy, education, and historical sciences.
