Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing our relationship with knowledge, work and machines. Between fascinating promises and legitimate fears, it is redefining the way we apprehend the world, thought and even our own humanity. Are we witnessing a cognitive revolution? Can AI really think, understand or know? And what impact will these advances have on society and our daily lives?
In the company of Mr. Phi, a well-known philosopher, Youtuber and popularizer, we’ll be looking at the major challenges of AI, in relation to knowledge, robotization and our relationship with machines. What place does the human being still have in the face of ever more powerful systems? What does it mean to “understand” in a world where algorithms produce knowledge without any real consciousness? And how far can we automate decisions without losing control?
A fascinating exchange that will lead us to question the philosophical, ethical and political implications of a future where intelligence may no longer be exclusively human.
The café-philo will take place at the Bains des Pâquis, on the pier, under the yurt, and will be broadcast live on Facebook and available to stream on YouTube. Free admission.
