Against the backdrop of the massive propagation of the use of artificially intelligent (AI) applications in many areas of our lives, theorists and practitioners both have been asking under what conditions AI systems are trustworthy, or when users can reasonably trust them. More fundamentally, philosophers have asked whether AI systems are the right kind of thing to be deemed trustworthy, or to be trusted, in the first place.
This seminar will start by looking at some classic philosophical texts on trust, and by giving insight into the basic functioning of some current AI systems. We will then trace the philosophical debate on the possibility of trustworthy AI, and of trust in AI. We will also take a look at what neighboring disciplines have to say about trustworthy AI. Finally, we will place the question of trustworthy AI in the context of AI ethics. Room 2.242
