Lhe Anglet Microcomputing Club (Mica) is organizing its second annual conference at the Maison pour tous, Wednesday November 15 at 8 p.m., on a topical theme: “For a critical philosophy of artificial intelligence”. The previous one, in May, welcomed 130 people.
Is the fear of the famous AI justified and will it end up alienating humans or is it a matter of cooperation between human and artificial intelligence? What could it look like and what will it change about our intelligence? These will be the questions asked during this evening.
This conference will take place in the Ansbach room of the Maison pour tous. Entrance is free, upon reservation at club@mica.asso.fr. The speaker will be Apolline Guillot, young journalist and associate professor of philosophy, editor-in-chief of “Philonomist”, independent digital media. Normalian, graduated from the École Normale Supérieure de Lyon, she completed her studies at HECParis where she specialized in the philosophy of science, computer science and new technologies.
Advantages and abuses
Professor of philosophy, Angloy Christophe Lamoure, who organizes philosophy conferences at the Baroja stables, will present this very contemporary debate. “Philosophy reflects on different objects and the experiences that these objects allow us to be interested in the present,” he recalls. The new technological objects that have appeared over the past number of years and that are changing our ways of communicating, informing ourselves, thinking and working have a profound impact. This is very rich material for questions. »
On the uses that can be made of them, on the advantages that they bring and, obviously, on the questions that their excesses raise: “We are confronted with machines capable of carrying out these exercises in a quite remarkable way”, underlines Christophe Lamoure.
What place for AI?
These questions will be at the center of Apolline Guillot’s intervention. She questions the place that artificial intelligence will hold in our society. Not from the angle of substitution, but from that of collaboration. “How to work with these machines: is there a dimension of alienation in having to submit to these machines, or can it take another form? »
According to Christophe Lamoure, some people worry about evolving in a world that takes on a very different face and this technological environment worries them. This conference will be an opportunity to answer these different questions. Christophe Lamoure also wanted an extension of Wednesday’s meeting, with a workshop-debate on the same theme, Tuesday November 21 at 6:30 p.m., still at the Maison pour tous. The following week, Tuesday November 21 at 6:30 p.m., he will host a workshop-debate on this conference with Sébastien Hirigoyen, host of Mica.
