Companies Don’t Have an AI Problem. They Face a Leadership Challenge. AI is not underdelivering; it is exposing the friction in how enterprises work. Value creation requires a redesign of our operating habits, not just our technology.

Why Philosophy Must Expand in the Age of AI ✍️ @CEO_AISOMA 👉 "For centuries, philosophy has asked what it means to be human. What does it mean to know? To act morally? To be free? To live a meaningful life?" 👉 "These questions were almost always asked under one silent assumption: that intelligence belonged primarily to us" 👉AI disturbs this inheritance because today's AI systems are already forcing us to rethink the concepts through which we understand ourselves 👉 "What kind of civilization are we building around these systems? What forms of dependence are we quietly normalizing? When does convenience become quiet surrender?" 💡" The collapse of cognitive exceptionalism is not the collapse of human value" 💡 We may no longer be alone in intelligence, but "the central concern is not machine imitation of humanity. It is human fidelity to what is best in us" @Corix_JC @ahier @sim010101 @Sonu_Monika @maponi @dinisguarda @JagersbergKnut @Shi4Tech @FernandaKellner @PVynckier @EstelaMandela @chidambara09 @SusanHayes_ @sulefati7 @theomitsa @TarakRindani @FrRonconi @pchamard @Nicochan33 @JoannMoretti @Khulood_Almani @RamonaEid @MHcommunicate @Fabriziobustama @TheAIObserverX @mikeflache @Eli_Krumova @smaksked @amalmerzouk @Analytics_699 @MaryRich78 @NathaliaLeHen @RLDI_Lamy @sminaev2015 @WillyRayNick @DanielleLargier

Active Inference: A method for Phenotyping Agency in AI systems? arxiv.org/abs/2604.23278 ✍️ @KarlFristonNews @MahaultAlbarra1 @nico_hinrichs et al. via 'arxiv 👉 Agentic AI is developing faster than our ability to describe or control it. Currently, people mostly define "agency" as an AI being independent and goal-oriented. 👉 The authors propose a clearer way to measure agency using three rules: intentionality, rationality, and explainability. 👉 They argue that as AI gets better at exploring and solving problems, we shouldn't just try to control them with external rules. Instead, we need to focus on how they are programmed to make choices internally. 💡 This provides a "principled, variational bridge from computational phenotyping to AI governance strategy" @Corix_JC @ahier @Sonu_Monika @maponi @CEO_AISOMA @dinisguarda @JagersbergKnut @Shi4Tech @FernandaKellner @PVynckier @EstelaMandela @chidambara09 @sulefati7 @SusanHayes_ @theomitsa @TarakRindani @FrRonconi @Nicochan33 @JoannMoretti @pchamard @Khulood_Almani @RamonaEid @MHcommunicate @Fabriziobustama @TheAIObserverX @mikeflache @Eli_Krumova @smaksked @amalmerzouk @Analytics_699 @MaryRich78 @NathaliaLeHen @sminaev2015 @WillyRayNick @DanielleLargier @RLDI_Lamy

Lies, Damned Lies, and the Orthogonality Thesis osf.io/preprints/osf/… ✍️ @MiTiBennett via @OSFramework 👉 The orthogonality thesis says intelligence and final goals are independent. It is an example of Computational Dualism. 👉 "It treats intelligence as a property of disembodied software and goals as labels that can be attached to that software at will" 👉"That picture has shaped AI safety. It treats alignment as a problem of choosing a utility function for a neutral software optimiser." 👉In this paper the author shows that "once embodiment is explicit, no representation-invariant factorisation of intelligence and goals preserves realised success. The same code succeeds in one body and fails in another" 💡 "The idea that realised success can be decomposed into a software-only intelligence coordinate and an independently specifiable goal coordinate is refuted" @Corix_JC @ahier @Sonu_Monika @maponi @sallyeaves @CEO_AISOMA @dinisguarda @JagersbergKnut @Shi4Tech @FernandaKellner @PVynckier @EstelaMandela @chidambara09 @sulefati7 @SusanHayes_ @theomitsa @TarakRindani @FrRonconi @Nicochan33 @JoannMoretti @pchamard @Khulood_Almani @RamonaEid @MHcommunicate @Fabriziobustama @TheAIObserverX @mikeflache @Eli_Krumova @smaksked @amalmerzouk @Analytics_699 @MaryRich78 @NathaliaLeHen @sminaev2015 @WillyRayNick @DanielleLargier @RLDI_Lamy
