Artificial Intelligence

AI and philosophy intersect in exploring the profound implications of artificial intelligence on human understanding, ethics, and existence. Philosophers examine AI’s impact on concepts like consciousness, free will, and the nature of intelligence.

This interdisciplinary dialogue is crucial for guiding the responsible development and integration of AI into society, ensuring that technological progress aligns with human values and ethical standards.
