Yasser Rahrovani's research explores the intersection of technology, design, and innovation. He researches how emerging digital technologies—especially artificial intelligence (AI)—transform organizations, work, and expertise. His work examines the evolving interplay between design intentions, user practices, and AI’s own agency, with a particular interest in governance, human–AI interactions, and the paradoxes these systems create. Yasser’s scholarship bridges theory and practice, spanning topics such as platform governance, digital drifting, and the ethical challenges of AI in sensitive domains like healthcare and public services.
Yasser also designs innovative learning experiences for executives, graduate students, and youth. He is the creator of Fundamentals of AI for Business (FunAI), a hands-on course for non-technical learners. He pioneers the use of comic-based case studies and podcasts to engage diverse audiences in complex topics. His teaching draws on real-world cases, interdisciplinary perspectives, and experiential exercises to prepare leaders to navigate the opportunities and risks of AI-driven transformation.
