The Galileo Moment

Every major intellectual revolution has a Galileo moment: when the object of inquiry becomes clear, the method takes shape, and the formal language adequate to carry the new questions is still being forged. Newton and Leibniz didn't find calculus waiting for them. The questions Galileo opened called it into existence.

There is an I you feel. Located, bounded, looking out at the world from somewhere behind your eyes. Geneosophy is not interested in that I.

The Ground Beneath the "I"

There is an I you feel. Located, bounded, looking out at the world from somewhere behind your eyes. Geneosophy is not interested in that I. It is interested in what makes that I possible, the generative ground beneath perception, beneath experience, beneath the very distinction between inside and outside. This

We have become master cartographers of the "given." By scaling computation, we have built maps so vast and detailed that we often mistake the territory for the grid.

The Question AI Will Never Ask

We have become master cartographers of the "given." By scaling computation, we have built maps so vast and detailed that we often mistake the territory for the grid. But as the dialogue between the AI Practitioner and the Philosopher reveals, our current path in Artificial Intelligence is a pursuit of

In conversation with other #UX practitioners, I often lament that fundamental #CogSci expertise is missing in most of our craft's public discourse. An example for that are the Gestalt Laws, such as figure/ground in this video.

Someone designing human-computer #interactions absolutely must understand these principles, even if they don't know their formal names. Judging from the average software UI shipping these days, alas, it's not taught and/or valued nearly enough.

We talk endlessly about what AI can and cannot do. We talk very little about the assumptions built into the question itself. This dialogue follows a philosopher and an AI practitioner.

From Plato to Gradient Descent: The Frame We Forgot We Chose

Practitioner: I’ll be honest—I find the "philosophy of AI" a bit indulgent. We aren’t guessing anymore. We’re building systems that work. GPT, AlphaFold, Sora... these aren't accidents. We’ve clearly cracked the code on how intelligence functions. Philosopher: I don’t doubt the results. But results

I’m also excited to introduce students to our redesigned Philosophy of Mind MA (www.ucd.ie/philosophy/s...) and Cognitive Science MSc programmes (www.ucd.ie/philosophy/s...). Both include a wide range of philosophy and interdisciplinary options and intro modules. #PhilMind #PhilCogSci #CogSci

Good summary of the many interesting, overarching theory-of-mind concepts found in Marvin Minsky's The Society of Mind.
