This course explores the intersection of artificial intelligence and key philosophical domains, including the philosophy of mind, epistemology, and ethics. The introductory section defines the concept of artificial intelligence, the Turing machine, and the Turing test. It also examines various approaches to AI, such as symbolic AI and the standard model of the human mind.
The course further delves into the biological foundations of contemporary AI, connectionist models, artificial neural networks, and deep learning. The philosophical segment addresses critical issues, including the distinction between syntax and semantics in relation to John Searle's Chinese Room argument, the computational theory of mind, and functionalism. Special attention is given to the societal impact of AI, particularly its ethical and political implications. In addition, the course explores ethical dilemmas such as the Trolley Problem and decision-making in autonomous systems, alongside discussions on transparency, accountability, and bias in AI. Students will also be introduced to advanced artificial intelligence and the concept of superintelligence, with a focus on its potential risks and safety concerns. Finally, the course examines AI's relationship to models of reality, ontologies, and category theories in both philosophy and artificial intelligence. Last update: Vacura Miroslav, doc. Mgr.
