Dr. T. J. Kalaitzidis conducts interdisciplinary research at the intersection of the learning sciences, philosophy of science, the humanities, and critical AI studies. His work examines how educational assemblages and digital infrastructures formalize epistemological assumptions that shape inquiry, knowledge, meaning, and intelligence. Drawing on science and technology studies, he currently analyzes generative AI as a structural challenge to knowledge production rather than a pedagogical instrument. He developed the concept of epistemic laundering to describe how knowledge systems absorb contradiction while stabilizing internal coherence. His scholarship advances frameworks for cultivating judgment, interpretation, and problem-framing in AI-mediated learning environments.
