Our current series explores the philosophical, ethical, and technical dimensions of AI Agency. We take a multidisciplinary approach to these questions, featuring speakers from philosophy, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, the law, and beyond.
The series is organized by Benjamin Henke and Patrick Butlin as part of the London AI and Humanity Project at the Institute of Philosophy.
