About me

Hello! I am a PhD candidate in the Philosophy & Ethics group at Eindhoven University of Technology, investigating how we can explain the behavior of large language models.

More specifically, I argue that we can take inspiration from debates in AI from the 1980s and 90s, and argue that we can explain the behavior of current LLMs through an appeal to tacit knowledge.

In my PhD project, I am supervised by dr. Carlos Zednik and prof. dr. Vincent Müller.

Tacit knowledge and explaining the behavior of LLMs
I argue that current LLMs might acquire tacit knowledge, which could be used to explain their behavior.
