Philosophy Online: Exploring AI

Please join us Monday the 13th at 7pm for the second of a new online event series.

In this session, Yaron will lead an exploration of AI (AGI). The new generation of AI (chatGPT, Claude, Gemini etc.) appear to posses abilities previously considered to be uniquely human and to act in a manner we'd be hard pressed to not call intelligent. Does this mean they are actually intelligent? If not, how could we tell these states apart, and would that be a meaningful difference?

We'll examine these questions through a hand-waving introduction to the Chinese Room argument, and explore some of its immediate implications on current and future implementation of AI.
