Final dialogue panel of @Robophilosophy_ 2024, featuring @ShannonVallor, Kerstin Fischer, @David_Gunkel, @alan_winfield, Bertram Malle, and Raja Chatila. Tackling important questions about the future of #AI, #Robots, and society.

Fear the cyborg plants, they might come for you... Fantastic art performance/project by Dylan Cawthorne here at @Robophilosophy_ 2024 featuring moving plants. More information: dylancawthorne.com

Day 3 Kickoff: Emily Cross talking about neurocognitive perspectives on human-robot interaction.

Side note: the topic of my BA thesis, that somehow started my academia journey, was Chalmers' paper on the singularity, so this is a really special moment. 😄

This is just brilliant. Seeing a room of approx. 100 people listening to a live Zoom conversation is highly informative academic entertainment at its best! #Robophilosophy2024

Day 2 of @Robophilosophy_ 2024. Anthony Elliott talking, among other things, about fears, and an "AI tsunami" that sweeps over the world.

Listening to @WendellWallach live is just a dream come true. @Robophilosophy_ 2024 starting strong. Fantastic talk.

So happy to be here. Looking forward to a great experience. #robophilosophy

If you are ever giving an introductory lecture on #AI, #AIethics or technology ethics, make sure to include this book by @SvenNyholm. Highly informative, tackling the most important aspects of the discipline. I can also highly recommend it to people new to the field. A must read!

Networking event "Responsible AI". Full day of interesting projects and presentations about #AI, and #responsibility in a multitude of (social) contexts, e.g. elder care.

One small detail I absolutely love in the anime adaptation of #PLUTO is the placements of the memory chip slots for Atom and the older Gesicht, and the implications or interpretations that come with these placements. #robotethics #AIethics

Currently at a conference with various university representatives. When it comes to the topic of equal opportunities, around a third of those present leave. Last talk of the conference. I get that it was a long day. Still embarrassing to leave on such an important topic.

Surprisingly filled with (implicit) philosophical topics regarding consciousness, agency, and personhood in connection to artificial intelligence, hive minds & augmentation. Very entertaining read. #sciencefiction #AI

Went on a small hike in the woods today to enjoy the beauty of nature, and also to enjoy a beautiful late Summer's day.

Second night with a green space laser in sight, though the Witch King has not unleashed the forces of Minas Morgul ... yet. Bonus points for the cloud effects! Science is fascinating.
