Narcissus, the Serpent, and the Saint: Living Humanely in a World of Artificial Intelligence
Manage episode 394811419 series 3549305
Long before humanoid robots look like us, we will be able to have conversations with our smartphones that will evoke from us all the empathy that adults habitually reserve for fellow human beings. That is, we will own assistants and companions that will feel to us like persons but (unlike pets) will be entirely at our disposal. With assistance from antiquity, and in engagement with such contemporary philosophers of mind as Daniel Dennett, Prof. Jordan Wales (Hillsdale) discusses how we might live humanely in a world of artificial intelligence by taking up four questions: First, how would an apparently personal AI work? Second, what might this entity be? Third, what might we become, owning apparent persons that are mere tools? Lastly, how might we live as owners of apparent persons in such a way as to enhance rather than to erode our own humanity?
