    AI/mathematics, ethics, the missing link in our knowledge, building a world for the brain.

    Join Aidan and Helena for an episode on a contemporary philosophical problem: artificial intelligence. We talk about mathematics, descriptions of reality, whether AI can discover reality, reasoning with vs. reasoning from, AI as supplementing a missing link in our own knowledge, the problem with AI doomsday scenarios, and how we could build a world for the brain. We have sadly had some audio issues while recording this episode. We hope you can still enjoy it!
