Eamon Duede studies the philosophy and social study of science, focusing on how artificial intelligence—especially large language models and deep learning systems—affects scientific discovery, mathematical proof, and knowledge production. His work examines issues like the 'opacity' (lack of interpretability) of AI systems, whether AI outputs can count as genuine discoveries, and the social and epistemic implications of AI-generated errors or fabrications (sometimes called 'hallucinations' or 'confabulations'). He combines philosophical analysis with quantitative approaches like bibliometrics (the study of publication and citation patterns) to understand how AI is reshaping science.
Publication output has grown over the last decade, rising from about 2-4 papers per year earlier on to roughly 6 per year in the most recent years, averaging 4.8 publications annually over the last five years.
