Dr Joel Krueger

Associate Professor
Philosophy

I work on issues in phenomenology, philosophy of mind, and cognitive science. This includes topics related to embodied cognition, emotions, social cognition, psychopathology, loneliness, and human-AI interactions. I also have interests in Asian and comparative philosophy, philosophy of music, and pragmatism.

 

Lately, I've mainly been writing about philosophical issues raised by autism, as well as some ways people use AI companions for social and emotional purposes: to love, grieve, cope with loneliness, etc.
