Biography
Peta worked on the TAS Hub from 2022-24. During that time, she oversaw development of the TAS Usecase Library - an online repository of experimental usecase scenarios suitable for the investigation of trust and trustworthiness. She was also co-investigator with Sachini Weerawardhana on the ‘Leap of Faith’ project, looking at factors capable of persuading people to trust systems of which they have no previous knowledge or experience. Peta has recently been awarded a two-year fellowship from the Royal Academy of Engineering to investigate how AI can be used to identify – and mitigate – deceptive behaviour.
