Milan on An Open Letter from Academics about AI Risk / Life Without the Internet & the Case for Non-Network Redundancy
This seems to carry risks of political repression. Various countries have recently restricted internet access to suppress political protest/unrest. One reason these attempts had limited to success is…
WiseGuy on A Philosopher Among the MacArthur Fellows
of course.. they gave it to him and not me.
David Wallace on AI in Peer Review: Practices & Policies
Let’s stipulate that Dropbox genuinely has no ties to AI companies. What about using Gmail or OneDrive? I don’t see how one could consistently (e.g.) abjure using Gemini…
David Wallace on AI in Peer Review: Practices & Policies
That’s my (4): no objection in principle but it is probably sensible to draw a bright line.
Meme on New Study on AI’s Philosophical Skills
Surreptitiously
Michael on A Philosopher Among the MacArthur Fellows
Yes, memory is narrative storytelling using context triggered neurological networks. Freud speculated about memory traces, Friston called the Bayesian probability clouds.
Luca Barlassina on A Philosopher Among the MacArthur Fellows

Dee on AI in Peer Review: Practices & Policies
And if evidence of bad behavior from Dropbox comes to light, I'll trust them less than I do at the moment. Many of us have used Dropbox for…
Kate on AI in Peer Review: Practices & Policies
Just on point 2. I don't really think that editors are asking for reviewers to know what *you* think of it in a way that excludes what you…
Sander Verhaegh on Analytic Philosophy and McCarthyism: A New Look (guest post)
Thanks Conner, interesting suggestion! I guess the list of philosophers targeted by Red hunters is too short to draw any firm conclusions. But even this short list does…
Protrepticus on New Study on AI’s Philosophical Skills
“What exactly do you mean by…?” There is a potential demarcation problem here. Before asking whether AI can ‘do philosophy’, we need some account of what counts as…
