Generative AI: Opportunities and Effects on Society
Sylvie Saget is a PhD student in computational linguistics at the University of Gothenburg. Her background mixes academia and the private sector: first as a research engineer in conversational AI at IRISA and Institut Télécom, then as an innovation consultant. She is interested in conversational agents that can interact and speak autonomously, whether they are humans, robots, or avatars. Her research focuses on the modeling of reasoning and dialogue via a transdisciplinary approach mixing philosophy of mind, logics and psychology. This modeling allows her to develop interaction management technologies, conversational agent architectures - as well as to develop social agents used as tools for psychology. More recently, she has broadened her field of application to the development of responsible conception and design methods.
