[SydPhil] University of Sydney Philosophy Seminar Series, Inês Hipólito, (Macquarie University)

[Ryan Cox]

Hi everyone,

This week's speaker in the University of Sydney Philosophy Seminar Series is Inês Hipólito, (Macquarie University)

The title of the talk is "The Human Roots of AI". Here is an abstract for the talk:

In the era of intertwined human and AI-generated content, understanding their impact on cultural practices is crucial. AI-driven decision-making systems significantly influence cognition and societal well-being, yet biases towards Western perspectives risk neglecting diverse knowledge systems and cultural identities. Philosophical inquiries into AI's ontology raise profound societal implications, while viewing AI as a cultural product offers insights into its reciprocal relationship with cultural practices. This paper explores the interplay among culture, cognition, and AI to understand their implications for knowledges, cultural identities, and human narratives.

The seminar will take place at 3:30pm on Wednesday May 1 in the Philosophy Seminar Room (N494).
