How can we enable organizations to become AI-driven and operate as unified intelligences?
I am interested in how frontier AI influences social behavior, enterprise architecture, and human-machine collaboration, and how these changes can support organizations designed as adaptive, collective intelligence. I am an enthusiast of building and applying AI-powered platforms as systematic solutions to pressing social and business challenges. My interests center on three connected convictions:
- AI-driven organizations -- I believe organizations will be designed around AI-first workflows in which human and artificial reasoning are part of the operating model. I am experimenting with adaptive workflows, canonical architectures for agentic pipelines, and multi-level reasoning in which one level observes and adjusts the next.
- Agent-Oriented Solution Engineering -- I explore how to structure the process of creating adaptive AI workflows that can act autonomously, observe changing conditions, adapt their behavior, and reconfigure their operations. I am looking into common elements and reusable architectures, representations for defining workflows in agentic AI pipelines, agent-oriented architectures, and multi-agent compositions.
- Social skills of AI agents -- I expect AI agents to require social skills to work within human-agent workflows. I am exploring the structures that help people and AI agents understand roles, coordinate contributions, act with accountability, and form collective intelligence.
I work across industry and academia, bridging frontier research and enterprise application. At TELUS Digital, I translate frontier AI research into enterprise strategy, architecture, and systems for complex operating environments.
As an Industry Professor at Florida Atlantic University and Director of the Generative Intelligence Lab, I connect industry demand with frontier AI research, teaching, and practical exploration. I have held senior roles at IBM and Samsung Research and serve as a Board Advisor to multiple startups.
I hold a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Utrecht University, have co-edited six books, published 90+ scientific publications, and hold 100+ patents.
