Philosophy, AI, and Innovation Seminar

The Philosophy, AI, and Innovation Seminar explores issues at the intersection of philosophy, AI, and technological innovation, co-taught by a philosopher and a technologist. The seminar has welcomed discussants from the technology industry sharing insights from their time at places including Midjourney, Anthropic, Imbue, Google DeepMind, Story Protocol, ex/ante, and Stripe. The focus of the seminar is on how a concern for human flourishing can be embedded in the technology development pipeline, and on exploring how broader bridges can be built between philosophy and technology.
