Min forskning spenner over språkfilosofi og filosofisk metodologi, samtidig som den tar opp beslektede spørsmål innen sinnsfilosofi, sosialfilosofi, kritisk raseteori og feministisk teori, sosialpsykologi, metafysikk og, mer nylig, reproduksjonsetikk. Jeg er særlig interessert i conceptual engineering og etikk, samt de etiske og politiske dimensjonene ved menneskeskapt og KI-generert språk.
