La differenza fondamentale : artificial agency : una nuova filosofia dell'intelligenza artificiale
Description:
Artificial intelligence is not just a new technology: it is the force that is redefining our present. Capable of learning, adapting and deciding autonomously, AI is already profoundly transforming our daily lives, the economy, businesses, work, education, politics, culture and even the fabric of social relations. Never before has it been more urgent to understand its true nature in order to distinguish the possible from the illusion and face the challenges that await us with clarity. Is AI really an intelligence comparable to ours? Or is it our mind that functions, in part, as a computational machine? And how will the world change after his advent? Luciano Floridi, one of the greatest contemporary philosophers and an international reference for digital ethics, offers a new and surprising perspective: AI should not be understood as a form of intelligence, but rather as a new form of "agency". It does not think or understand like a biological being, like a human being, but it is a very powerful set of computational capabilities capable of acting in the world effectively and successfully, without however possessing any intelligence. This conceptual shift has decisive consequences. Only by distinguishing intelligence from artificial agency can we avoid errors of evaluation, direct progress responsibly and find concrete answers to the conceptual, ethical, legal and political problems that AI is already creating. Truly understanding what artificial intelligence is - and what it is not - means learning to know it and using it better, instead of being subjected to it. This is the necessary condition to face the challenges of the future with courage and clarity.
