Great to see this paper accepted! Congrats!

A wonderful article from Kathy Puddifoot, arguing that we should ameliorate the concept of remembering to support justice and fairness. Definitely one of my favorite papers in the philosophy of memory so far! link.springer.com/article/10.1...

How does Artificial Intelligence transform the culture of grief? Today, Nathália de Ávila (University of Cologne) explores how griefbots impact the grieving process, and if, simulating the presence of lost loved one, prevents loss from taking place. #philsky imperfectcognitions....

My post on Imperfect Cognitions is out, discussing how memory features can change psychopathological grief in the age of AI. The longer text version can be found here: open.substack.com/pub/nathalia... imperfectcognitions.blogspot.com?m=1

Ótima iniciativa!

Happy to share that our paper, "Causally defective remembering: a study on the folk concept of memory", co-authored with Vilius Dranseika, Kirk Michaelian, and Chris McCarroll, has been accepted for publication in Philosophical Psychology! philpapers.org/rec/LVACDR

Just realized analytic philosophy is not actually hard to define. It’s basically a specific set of dry geeky lore: fake barns, brains in vats, cleverly disguised zebras, swampmen, blockheads, a scientist who never saw red, etc. and then we write fanfic.
