DESCRIPTION:<p>The conference aims to bring techno-philosophical perspectives into dialogue and to explore how AI can be interpreted within\, across\, and between traditions of the philosophy of technology.</p>\n<p>The title highlights three interconnected dimensions of this encounter:</p>\n<p><strong>Traditions</strong> refer to the diverse schools and lineages within the philosophy of technology that provide conceptual frameworks for interpreting technological developments. These traditions often crystallize around influential authors\, methodological approaches\, or intellectual constellations within particular philosophical or regional contexts. Whether emerging from phenomenological\, ontological\, critical\, feminist\, media-philosophical\, pragmatist\, or science and technology studies approaches\, they offer distinct ways of understanding technology.</p>\n<p><strong>Transitions</strong> refer to the conceptual and technological shifts associated with AI. Developments such as machine learning\, generative models\, and large-scale computational infrastructures invite reconsideration of established techno-philosophical concepts and raise questions about how existing philosophical frameworks respond to new technological configurations.</p>\n<p><strong>Tensions</strong> refer to the conceptual\, methodological\, and normative disagreements that arise within the philosophy of technology when interpreting AI. Within the philosophy of technology\, AI intersects with diverse philosophical problem horizons\, including ontological questions of technics and being\, theories of human&ndash\;technology relations\, reflections on human activity\, labor\, and automation as well as approaches that situate technics within broader ecological\, natural\, or systemic contexts. These differing conceptual starting points shape how AI is interpreted and debated.</p>
