## About
**The Curious Lab** is an independent research laboratory focusing on the intersection of artificial intelligence, organizational dynamics, and society. We investigate how AI systems are built, evaluated, and deployed in real-world contexts.

Our work emphasizes transparency, interpretability, and practical AI literacy to bridge the gap between complex model behavior and meaningful human decision-making.

## Research Areas
We conduct research at the intersection of current literature, system analysis, and application context:

1.  **Model Evaluation & Explainability:** Analyzing AI model behavior, evaluation metrics, interpretability methods, and operational limitations.
2.  **Organizational Adoption:** Investigating how AI tools impact team decision-making, workflow practices, and responsibility distribution.
3.  **AI Literacy:** Helping non-technical groups understand, evaluate, and critically apply AI systems.

## Methodology
Every study at The Curious Lab begins with a clear research question:
*   **Question:** Define scope and research questions.
*   **Examination:** Analyze evidence and system behaviors.
*   **Sharing:** Publish findings as research notes, frameworks, or open-source artifacts.
