Joanna Bryson is an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Bath. She works on Artificial Intelligence, ethics and collaborative cognition. She has been a British citizen since 2007.

Education

Bryson attended Glenbard North High School and graduated in 1982.[1] She studied Behavioural Science at the University of Chicago, graduating with an AB in 1986.[2] In 1991 she moved to the University of Edinburgh where she completed an MSc in Artificial Intelligence before an MPhil in Psychology.[3] Bryson moved to MIT to complete her PhD, earning a doctorate in 2001 for her thesis " Intelligence by Design: Principles of Modularity and Coordination for Engineering Complex Adaptive Agents".[4] In 1995 she worked for LEGO as an AI consultant, researching child-oriented programming techniques for the product that became LEGO Mindstorms.[5][failed verification] She completed a postdoctoral fellowship in Primate Cognitive Neuroscience at the Harvard University in 2002.[6]

Research

She joined the Department of Computer Science at the University of Bath in 2002.[7] At Bath, Bryson founded the Intelligent Systems research group.[8][9] In 2007 she joined the University of Nottingham as a Visiting Research Fellow in the Methods and Data Institute.[10] During this time, she was a Hans Przibram Fellow at the Konrad Lorenz Institute for Evolution and Cognition.[10] She joined Oxford University as a Visiting Research Fellow in 2010, working with Harvey Whitehouse on the impact of religion on societies.[10][11]

In 2010 Bryson published Robots Should Be Slaves, which selected as a chapter in Yorick Wilks' "Close Engagements with Artificial Companions: Key Social, Psychological, Ethical and Design Issues".[12][13] She helped the EPSRC to define the Principles of Robotics in 2010.[14] In 2015 she was a Visiting Academic at the University of Princeton Center for Information Technology Policy, where she still remains as an affiliate.[15] She is focussed on "Standardizing Ethical Design for Artificial Intelligence and Autonomous Systems".[16]

Bryson's research has appeared in Science and on Reddit.[17][18] She has consulted The Red Cross on autonomous weapons and contributed to an All Party Parliamentary Group on Artificial Intelligence.[19]

In 2017 she won an Outstanding Achievement award from Cognition X.[20] She regularly appears in national media, talking about human-robot relationships and the ethics of AI.[21][22]
