MOHSEN HASSAN NEJAD

Erasmus Mundus Joint MSc in AI for Sustainable Societies | Based in Finland

Profile

My research investigates the mechanisms that shape the behavior of LLM agents. More broadly, I am interested in how AI models influence human learning, reasoning, creativity, and social organization. I also help individuals and organizations navigate this transformation in practice through teaching and consultation.

Research Interests

Role Design & System Prompts • Philosophy & Ethics of AI • Multi-Agent LLM Systems • Social Simulations • Governance & Economics of AI • Autonomy, Creativity & AI

Research & Projects

Designing Roles for AI Agents (Master's Thesis)
Examining how the roles developers assign to LLM agents shape their behavior across multi-agent systems. Paper accepted for publication at WorldCist'26 conference.
ReaLLM
A research prototype exposing the hidden instructions that shape LLM behavior, designed to test interface-level transparency as a safety intervention in human-AI interaction. Accepted for workshop at CPDP 2026 conference in Brussels.
Civic AI Debaters
A web-based study comparing single vs. multi-agent setups to examine how model configuration shapes bias in civic learning.
Beijing Air Quality Predictor (ML)
Python-based time series analysis (EDA, feature engineering, and ML modeling) + Forecasting web app deployed via Streamlit.
AI Academy
Prototype role-playing game (RPG) built for kids to interact with LLM agents in different roles, learning how prompts influence their behavior.
