\nFrontiers of Artificial Intelligence &ndash\; Philosophical explorations
\nExtended Deadline
\nDec 1-2\, 2023
\nThe conference explores the philosophical \; problems at the frontiers of \;Artificial Intelligence (AI). \;The assumption behind the conference is that AI technology itself cannot explain what AI technology does and can accomplish\, why AI systems do what they do and not do and why they cannot (so far) \;move beyond a certain class of problems. The claim is that to progress\, AI needs to understand the philosophical background of the problems it attempts to model. Thus\, AI needs philosophy\; \;the question &ldquo\;What philosophy can do for AI?&rdquo\; may be another title of this conference. Some of the topics we hope to discuss are:
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; Roads to AGI &ndash\; is there one or many or none?
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; AI like us? Do we really want it?
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; AI creativity &ndash\; AI art\, music\, literature\, philosophy &ndash\; is there one?
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; Synthetic philosophy\; philosophy of AI\, or by AI?
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; Epistemic States in AI systems- are there any?
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; Belief forming processes in AI systems
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; Deep ethics in AI systems\, ethical problem space\, dual use AI- what are we talking about?
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; What is agency? AI threats to human agency\, creativity\, truth\, and society - realities\, sci-fi visions\, dystopias or utopias\; reading tea-leaves of technology\, who should be in control of whom\, do we lose ontological status of primary epistemic agents.
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; Do we need philosophy in AI \; or having \; just clever programmers enough?
