REPEAT: Silicon Soulmates - A Deep Dive into AI Relationships (Part Deux)

NOTE - this is a copy of the 10/11 event due to popular demand and limited space. If you were waitlisted or could not make the first occurrence, feel free to join us for this one!

Join our philosophy meetup as we dive into the thought-provoking questions raised by the film “Her” and recent trends of AI “companions” in today’s society!

Can you truly fall in love with an AI, and can it genuinely love you back? We'll explore the complex philosophical underpinnings of AI relationships, dissecting concepts like personhood, embodiment, feelings, and reciprocity in the context of human-AI interaction.

Using Her as our guide, we'll discuss the unsettling implications of advanced AI companions, from issues of power and privacy to the very nature of human connection and love. Come ready for a fascinating and potentially unsettling discussion on where the future of relationships might be headed!
