Enjoyed attending the European Experimental Philosophy conference this week at University of East Anglia!
Heard many engaging talks, presented my work on how AI is shaping what counts as (an) achievement, beauty and art, and concluded my attendance with a fun doodle.

A study based on household surveys suggests that from October 2023 to January 2025, around 75,000 people in Gaza died violent deaths, while Gaza's health ministry estimates 46,000 for the same period
Independent estimate of Gaza deaths is higher than official figures

Like, why is tech media nonplussed that the most 'advanced' information technology we supposedly possess, one rapidly being scaled to every human learning activity and decision process worldwide, is continually leaking nonsense into our knowledge ecosystem like the goddam Exxon Valdez??

Super excited for our lab @philmoralpsych.bsky.social to be hosting a talk by the brilliant @jimaceverett.bsky.social today on his group's latest work on moral reasoning and AI 👇
Looking forward to presenting today at 4pm in the Oxford Uehiro Institute talking about work with my PostDoc Scott Claessens and my PhD student Pierce Veitch on how we view others who outsource different tasks to AI and the role that effort plays in shaping perceptions of others.

This week has been tough for several reasons. I have been struggling to put it in words, but finally sat down and did some writing.

This week, I read several articles highlighting the press conference of the HHS secretary declaring that autism is a growing “epidemic.”

Oh dear.
The world seems to care selectively about human rights violations. AI will mirror us.
AI is also not socially aware. So what can an AI-powered drone understand of important military virtues like compassion?

Coming to you this Xmas, a ChatGPT-powered military drone “guided by values like freedom, fairness, and respect for human rights”, to make sure that “AI’s benefits are widely shared”. Never expected that “feel the AGI” should be taken literally.
