About Event
Theme: Philosophy of AI
Challenges the anthropocentric notion of intelligence by weaving together examples—from Greek oracles to octopuses to forests—to craft a relational, ecological vision of cognition.
Bridle, both technologist and artist, pushes readers to reconceive society’s technological future—not through silicon alone, but by learning from nonhuman intelligences and their systems.
