New paper is out! After Harm: A Plea for Moral Repair after Algorithms Have Failed. @aktant.bsky.social & I show that post-harm scenarios have not received enough attention and argue why attending to them is essential for a satisfactory account of AI ethics and governance. doi.org/10.1007/s119...

This is the latest addition to my on-going project on Confucian Ethics of Technology. In this paper, I move beyond the normative resources in the early Confucian to Neo-Confucian philosophy. Looking forward to sharing the ideas at CEACOP. #TechEthics #AIEthics #PhilTech

If true, this spells the end of policy-relevant philosophy and ethics, not to mention Tech Ethics and related topics (more so if it applies to humanities and social sciences funding agencies). Files in #TechEthics #PhilTech

Hey folks! I have a chance to promote new books on AI/tech that deserve attention this year. Looking for books that will offer a critical or novel perspective, not empty hype, and that are engaging for non-academics as well as researchers. Anything w/release date before August. What do you suggest?

Philosophy and science fiction syllabus for the 2nd round of the classs! Two big differences to other Phil+sci-fi syllabi: it's for upper division students, not intro; no pairing with 'normal' philosophy readings, just using the SFF as philosophical texts. Very discussion focused #philsky #philsci

Semester starts next week, so it's time to finalize the topics for the course *Contemporary Ethical Problems*, and I think I am settling on: - Procreation and antinatalism - Future persons - Meaning of Life - Casual relations and technology - Self-porn [...]

Save the date 19-20 June 2025 in Rotterdam and submit an abstract before 15 February 2025 ! We also welcome artistic submissions! more info here: www.eur.nl/en/news/call... #AI #criminology #digitalcriminology @marcschuilenburg.bsky.social

"Images, Moral Feelings, and Rites"—a new paper on Confucian #PhilTech published. In this paper, Xiaowei Wang and I outline a Confucian approach to human-technology relations and put Confucian philosophy in dialogue with postphenomenology directly. Enjoy and let us know what you think!

This is funny because I was recently marveling at how much knobs/dials on appliances rock. Especially when they have some weight/resistance - they tell your body you’re doing a thing. Incredibly physically and mentally satisfying compared to anything I have to do by tapping on an app

A quick tour of Harmonious Technology routledge.com/Harmonious-T... from my old #bluebirdarchive. The vol I co-ed with Tom Wang (Remin) should be out tomorrow (read: Feb 26, 2021). I do not have the physical copy to show, but I can surely share some keywords and ideas you will find in the volume

Now that the move to Bluesky is real, there are a few threads I want to move from the former Blue Bird to here, one of those is about my journey to Confucian ethics of technology. #philtech #techethics

This has been brewing for some time: very happy to share the news that I am taking up a TT post at Dept of Religion & Philosophy, Hong Kong Baptist University from 01.2024, working on Applied Ethics of AI.

We wrote a thing: on the UK's AI Safety Summit, and the lessons we still need to learn from the history of safety engineering. TL/DR: AI safety is not a *technical* problem #philtech #sts #philsky #histsci #AI&HCI #AIethics braiduk.org/a-shrinking-...

Hello all philosophers of technology and anyone else. I set up a feed specifically for posts for people working in this area. Hopefully it'll work just like twitter. Just use "#philtech" and your post will show up under this feed. Anyone following this feed will see your post. Happy discussions! :)

For those interested in AI, this is a fantastic primer by @ainowinstitute.bsky.social on the infrastructure needed to make AI work. Think: chips and compute plus the geopolitics, institutions, markets, and politics that make it all happen. ainowinstitute.org/publication/...
