ABOUT TAS

I am a Cognitive Computing specialist, who looks forward to an AI-enabled future that is human-centric and unbiased. Building on the foundations of computer science, cognitive science, psychology and anthropology, I am working on developing approaches to mitigate cognitive bias in AI and decision support systems, in order to produce non-discriminatory results and decisions. 

I am the co-founder and CTO of Cognidius Solutions, which is a startup specializing in Cognitive Computing. I am an avid public speaker on AI, Cognitive Computing, Human-Machine Symbiosis and Leadership Strategies. I have a TED Talk and several other keynotes and plenary talks to her name.

Here I am building an experimental workstation for Deep Learning.

WHY DO YOU LOVE WHAT YOU DO?

Being fascinated by computers and equally spellbound by human behaviour and psychology, it was quite natural for me to fall into AI and Cognitive Computing, which are inspired by human ingenuity . After a personal incident that made me think about bias and its influence on human behaviour, I started to delve deep into the topic of Cognitive Bias and its role in human evolution, behaviour, societies,  and ofcourse AI systems.

​ I love working in my field, because it allows me to not only improve machine intelligence, but also gives me a chance to study the complexities of human mind.
