Dr. Cole Robertson

Cole is a cognitive scientist and AI researcher with a deep-rooted fascination for language. After earning his MSc and PhD in Psychology and Psycholinguistics from the University of Oxford, he continued his research at Emory University, exploring how machine learning can better understand and respond to human speech. Cole believes language is one of the defining features of our humanity—a tool for connection, understanding, and community. He founded Ogma to ensure every child has the support they need to use their voice to take part in our human story.
