Should we be polite to AI tools? After all, they aren't humans. Still, something feels wrong about being rude.

  • Applications of philosophy in AI development
  • How to know if something is true
  • AI hijacking rational perspectives
  • How to know that we have consciousness
  • The risks of anthropomorphizing AI
  • Does AI have consciousness? Will AI develop a consciousness?
  • The danger of being passive readers
  • The benefits and risks of being nice to AI
  • Anthropomorphism vs. Personification
  • The difficulty of separating human and machine interactions

And much more!
