Hi, I'm James, a PhD Student @ Macquarie University.

We are living in incredible times with rapidly evolving technology that promises to drastically improve the ways we live, work and play. Much of this technology is fuelled by recent advances in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) from Tesla's self driving cars to conversational agents like Siri engaging in casual conversation. Despite these advancements, it is unclear how such AI agents should interact and work with humans in a predictable and desirable manner. The goal of my research is to understand these very dynamics.
