Deeply honoured to be welcomed by @hps-aaas.bsky.social and hoping to help its urgent drive for kindness, reason and care for our planet. science & tech need to foster democratic societies, not hinder them, and it is crucial for AAAS to lead the way particularly in the USA at this time #philsci

I should say it is so disturbing to keep going with such activities while more violence engulfs the Middle East. My response is to address such events in work and in dialogue with others, and continue to seek and build positive change in whichever little way we can (while it is still possible)

Rejoinder: Let Us Rescue Intelligence from Anti-Human AI

A truly fantastic piece Ramon, I enjoyed the exchange enormously and argued back for the need to rescue intelligence from anti-human AI, it’s too important a notion to both human and non-human interactions with the world - see this rejoinder hdsr.mitpress.mit.edu/pub/c5hq3by1.... #philsci

How to conceptualise research environments for transdisciplinary work? How do researchers negotiate such spaces, and with which implications for knowledge produced? @rosetrappes.bsky.social and I answered by proposing the idea of "multiplex research environments"! See: rdcu.be/eN8ie #philsci

Rejoinder: Let Us Rescue Intelligence from Anti-Human AI

Loved it of course, and so grateful you took the time to write this Shannon! You’ll see my response in my rejoinder also online now: hdsr.mitpress.mit.edu/pub/c5hq3by1...

So glad you sent us your wonderful proposal, and very much looking forward to hosting you in Munich Marianne!
