In this Episode we are joined by Dr. Rebekka Reinhard. Dr Reinhard is a philosopher and the founder and editor-in-chief of Human magazine, which aims to holistically address the impact of AI beyond the technical to include the cultural and the human.

In this episode, Hacking Our Capacity to Think - The Philosophy of Trust, Cybersecurity and AI, we explore these topics and more within the lens of philosophy.

We discuss the importance of an interdisciplinary dialogue between tech experts and humanities experts. How AI is Impacting democracy and our concept of trust and safety within the context of cybersecurity, and new threats like deepfakes and misinformation.

Key Takeaways:

The Human Element of AI: AI is not just technology; it's a reflection of human values and biases. Understanding its impact requires an interdisciplinary approach that considers philosophy, ethics, and technology.

AI and Democracy: Technology poses a threat to democratic processes. AI's ability to manipulate our thoughts and behaviours poses a significant threat to our autonomy and critical thinking. It's essential to be aware of these dangers and develop strategies to protect ourselves.

The Importance of Trust: Trust is a fundamental building block of society, and it's equally crucial in the context of AI. Building trust in AI systems requires transparency, accountability, and ethical considerations.

The Dangers of Individualism: In the digital age, individualism can lead to echo chambers and biased information. It's vital to foster a sense of collective responsibility and work together to address global challenges.

The Need for Reflection and Accountability: Leaders and creators of AI tools must be held accountable for the potential harms their creations may cause.
