Darko Stojilović

DPhil Candidate

My research focuses on moral interactions between humans and AI agents from a developmental perspective. I aim to trace the developmental trajectory of assigning and accepting moral responsibility, and predict how extended interaction with AI may reshape moral reasoning and social norms. I am supervised by Robert Hepach and Joanna Demaree-Cotton, and funded by the Clarendon Fund and the Oxford Department of Experimental Psychology.

I hold an MSc from UCL’s Experimental Psychology department, where I studied with the support of the Chevening Scholarship. My work has been published in Advances in Methods and Practices in Psychological Science, Behavioral and Brain Sciences, Collabra: Psychology, and Nature: Scientific Data. I have presented at several international conferences, including CogSci24, the 9th International Conference on Computational Social Science, and the AI UK 23 conference.

I am committed to making science more accessible to the public and have published more than 20 articles in popular science magazines and media outlets (e.g., see my article The Dark History of Statistics, p. 48). Before beginning my DPhil, I led high-stakes research projects as a Senior Research Consultant.
