Tekst pierwotnie ukazał się w „Proceedings and Addresses of the American Philosophical Association” pod tytułem „Does thought require sensory grounding? From pure thinkers to large language models”.

ELE was a labour hire and recruitment business, now in receivership with Deloitte as its managers. Opinion:The recent failings of ELE Group have highlighted the way Immigration New Zealand is assessing businesses for their fitness to employ workers from overseas on temporary AEWV (Accredited Employer Work Visas) visas. Businesses don’t fail overnight, it’s a slow burn, and ELE group knew well in advance of their receivership that they were only just treading water.

Wielką katastrofą byłoby bezwiedne i bezmyślne spotkanie ze sztuczną inteligencją obdarzoną świadomością – mówi David Chalmers, filozof umysłu i języka, kognitywista, uczestnik największych debat o naturze świadomości. Tekst pierwotnie ukazał się na łamach „Boston Review”.

Editors’ Note: This is an edited version of a talk given at the conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS) on November 28, 2022, with some minor additions and subtractions.

La parola “deepfake” viene spesso applicata a foto e video falsi piuttosto che a testi falsi. Fino a poco tempo fa, le immagini false venivano in genere prodotte con Photoshop, la tecnologia cgi e altri strumenti.

Assomiglia al giovane personaggio interpretato da Carrie Fisher nel film originale di Star Wars del 1977. La scena è stata creata utilizzando la tecnologia cgi.

デイヴィッド・Ｊ・チャーマーズがセッション登壇予定！ 注目の大型カンファレンス「WIRED Futures.」チケット発売中 ゲームであれVRであれZoomであれ、わたしたちが日々バーチャル（実質的）な空間で過ごす時間が増えるにつれて、「リアル／バーチャル」という二項対立の図式でそれを呼び習わす文化が定着してきた。だが哲学者デイヴィッド・チャーマーズに言わせれば、それは完全な間違いとなる。 「バーチャル世界は錯覚でも虚構でもないし、少なくともそうである必要はない。VRの中で起きることは現実に起きている」とチャーマーズは言う。例えばVR世界で見た息を飲む光景や、一期一会の仲間との出会いを思い起こせば、それがあなたの心の中でいつまでも「現実」として在ることに疑いの余地はないだろう──ちょうどかつて、デカルトが「我思う、ゆえに我あり」と結論づけたのと同じように。 したがって、本来は「フィジカル／バーチャル」という対比こそがふさわしく、そのどちらもが「リアル」だということになる（『WIRED』日本版は基本的にこの立場だ）。でも本当にそうだろうか？...
