Among all the attributes of AI, the models are prone to bullshitting. And so too are some humans, as the renowned philosopher Harry Frankfurt detected, and warned: “bullshit is a greater enemy of the truth than lies are.”
The antidote? Critical thinking, valuation of humanity, and of course, university press books. To mark the 20th anniversary edition of On Bullshit, and honoring our mission to ignite conversations, Princeton University Press organized a TeamUP with our community collaborators Princeton Public Library, Labyrinth Books and Princeton University GradFutures to host an event on bullshit and truth.
About the Panelists
Jaime Fernández Fisac, Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Princeton University, studies how to make robots and AI trustworthy around people, and how efforts to make generative AI more helpful can instead give rise to “machine bullshit.” Elizabeth Harman, Laurance S. Rockefeller Professor of Philosophy and Human Values at Princeton University, has published on the ethics of abortion, what we owe to animals, moral ignorance, moral uncertainty, and actions above and beyond what morality requires. Gideon Rosen, Stuart Professor of Philosophy and Acting Chair of the Department of Philosophy at Princeton. He is the author of A Subject With No Object (with John P. Burgess) and general editor of the Norton Introduction to Philosophy. Joe Schmid, a third year Philosophy PhD student at Princeton University working in metaphysics, philosophy of religion, and philosophy of mind. He also creates philosophy videos on his YouTube channel, Majesty of Reason, where you can now view this TeamUP event.
