About
Chathurika S. Wickramasinghe is a leading researcher in trustworthy artificial intelligence, with a focus on human-AI collaboration and augmented robotics. Her work addresses a critical barrier to AI adoption: the lack of trust in autonomous systems, particularly in high-risk domains such as healthcare, manufacturing, and defense. In her highly cited 2020 paper, "AI Augmentation for Trustworthy AI: Augmented Robot Teleoperation" (11 citations), she pioneers a framework for augmented robot teleoperation that keeps humans in the loop while leveraging AI to enhance decision-making and performance. This approach bridges the gap between full autonomy and human control, ensuring safety and reliability without sacrificing efficiency. Wickramasinghe’s contributions are pivotal in shaping how AI can be integrated into sensitive environments where trust is paramount. Her work has influenced ongoing discussions in human-robot interaction and AI ethics, earning her recognition as a thought leader in the field. By designing systems that augment rather than replace human operators, she is paving the way for more responsible and widely accepted AI deployment.
