01Research Focus
Rethinking responsibility in the age of intelligent systems.
Criminal law has long assumed that punishable conduct can be traced to a bounded, identifiable human agent. Artificial intelligence, robotics and digitally mediated environments increasingly test that assumption.

Read about this workIntention, But Hybrid: A New Test for Posthuman Agents
When human conduct is carried out through AI systems, the idea of a single intending actor becomes difficult to apply. The paper proposes a court-usable test for attributing criminal responsibility in human-AI systems, centred on who initiates an action, how technology mediates it and whether a meaningful window of human control remains. The aim is to keep responsibility assessable without abandoning the requirement of culpability.
Media & Recognition
Selected external coverage and public recognition of my work in criminal law, artificial intelligence, robotics and judicial practice.
03About

Posthuman Victims in the Anthropocene: Environmental Social Robots, Layered Harm, and the Edges of Criminal Law
RoboPhilosophy 2026
Presented in the session Environmental Robotics and Society, in Dublin, Ireland. The paper examined how environmental and socially embedded robotic systems challenge conventional assumptions about harm, victimhood and the boundaries of criminal-law protection.
