On Saturday I gave an online talk on “How to think like AI Ethicist” that was part of a How To Festival. I talked about thinking about responsibility and the issue of “responsibility gaps”. I talked about some key risks like hallucinations, bias, deep fakes, and companion AIs. I also mentioned that we need to celebrate the effective uses of AI and think not just about hazards, but also about AI for good.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere. We all need to assess what to use and how to use the new tools. In this talk Geoffrey Rockwell will discuss some of the safety issues raised by the new generative AI tools. He will suggest some ways you can think through AI.Geoffrey Rockwell is a Professor for Philosophy and Digital Humanities at the University of Alberta.
