The gathering

What to look forward to

A live taping of the *Persona* podcast will explore whether AI can think or surpass human capacities, and what that could mean for society. Philosophers Henry Shevlin of Cambridge and Jacob Sherman of the California Institute of Integral Studies will discuss the questions, moderated by Philosophy & Society Founding Director Samuel Kimbriel.

Inside the event

The Associated Press Stylebook set off a firestorm recently, arguing that “Artificial intelligence systems do not think, feel, want or understand. Avoid language that gives them human characteristics.” Questions that used to be reserved for the seminar room are now at the center of national debate — with major implications. How do we understand what is happening inside our latest technologies? Are they actually achieving capacities that meet or surpass human beings? And what are the implications for how we live together? Join us for a live taping of the Persona podcast with philosophers Henry Shevlin (Cambridge) and Jacob Sherman (California Institute of Integral Studies), moderated by Philosophy & Society Founding Director Samuel Kimbriel. 7pm - Doors 7:30-8:45pm - Live taping Reception to follow Please note space for this event is limited, and registration is by approval only.
