Ep. 94: What is Artificial Intelligence? feat. ChatGPT (Part II)

In this episode, Giuseppe and Anthony continue their conversation on the nature of AI -- this time, focusing on the implications it has for ethics and political philosophy: What are the results of granting AI systems authority with regard to the issue of truth? How are digital representations of things different from the things themselves -- are they? If a thing produces real effects, should we consider that thing real? Is it possible to be friends with an AI -- or to be in an intimate relationship with one? How should we judge situations in which people claim such things?
