Summary
Giuseppe Primiero is a Professor of Logic and researcher at the University of Milan with over a decade of experience at the intersection of formal computation, epistemic and modal logics, and the philosophy of computing. He leads the Master’s programme in Human-Centered AI and serves as Scientific Director of the PhilTech Research Center while co-founding MIRAI to drive responsible AI research in Milan. His work blends type theory, constructive semantics and formal models of collective rationality to tackle practical issues like explainability, trust, and error dynamics in distributed systems. Having held fellowships and teaching posts across Europe and the US, he combines deep theoretical foundations with applied engagement in industry and policy-facing projects. A less obvious strength is his sustained focus on formalizing the epistemic conditions of trust and error-resolution, which informs both his academic work and translational efforts in AI governance.
