Marieke Peeters

After 10 years of research into human-AI collaboration, she transferred into business, where she worked as an analytics translator. Then she started translating her previous knowledge into issues surrounding Responsible Applied AI. She combines knowledge and expertise from various domains, such as applied cognitive psychology, AI, ethics, and user-centered design.

AI has wonderful possibilities, but unfortunately it’s also oftentimes applied and used in the wrong way. Marieke would therefore like to commit herself to steer developments in the field of applied AI in the right direction.

Furthermore, Marieke is researcher at RAAIT, a SPRONG group in which Utrecht University of Applied Sciences collaborates with Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences, Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences, and various core and practice partners. She is also involved in PANORAIMA, for the communication and scaling component (wp7). Finally, she supervises the project of Anita Boerema, PD candidate at Utrecht University of Applied Sciences: 'Human-Centered Responsible AI in Organizations'
