Generative AI—the Transgression of Technology This article offers a systems-theoretical analysis of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) grounded in Niklas Luhmann's sociology of technology. It addresses a central conceptual problem: How G...

New article: Generative AI – The Transgression of Technology.
A text-near reconstruction of #Luhmann’s concept of #technology used to analyze #generativeAI. Conclusion: #GenAI maintains causal closure but undermines causal stability → a form of “quasi-technology.”

Paper om GenAI, eksamensopgaver og undervisning.

Analyse af 88 opgaver viser: karakterfordelingen ændrer sig ikke markant, men svagheder fremtræder i stigende grad som epistemiske problemer snarere end sproglige.

AI ændrer dermed selektionsproblemet i akademisk arbejde. pure.au.dk/ws/portalfil...

You can have the best armed forces in the history of the world, but if you are an incompetent criminal without a plan, you can still lose a war, and rather quickly.

Nej ikke denne gang - men det rumler lidt med en plan om en Youube-kanal!

Trods det flotte fristende snevejr gennemfører vi Luhmann-seminaret i eftermiddag

Hvordan kan organisationer bruge GenAI uden at afgive beslutningerne?

GenAI som selektionsforslag – ikke sandhed.

Really good and I have access to it - and I definitely will refer to it - big congratulations!

My new article on Luhmann’s epistemology is now published in Principia and freely available. It clarifies cognition as operational construction, not representation, and brings #Luhmann into the philosophical #epistemology debate.

Why a new California law could change the way all Americans browse the internet – The Markup Legislation recently enacted in California will make it easier for consumers nationwide to protect their data

California just passed a landmark privacy law — giving users the right to block browsers from sharing or selling their data once and for all.
Danish (and European) politicians should pay attention: they could simply follow California’s lead and copy the legislation. themarkup.org/privacy/2025...

After Axel Bruns’ talk at CFI’s 25-year anniversary, I’ve been rethinking “filter bubbles.” In dialogue with my MKVT students — and with Habermas & Meyrowitz — I argue the issue isn’t isolation but exposure. New blog reflection: jespertaekke.dk/archives/359 @snurb.info

Great—please ping me when your article is out. I’ve also shifted my view: to see GAI as a quasi-technology with a non-trivial, stochastic core that resists full control, while organizations can exert interface control via programs/policies. In short: limited deep control, strong surface steerability

Can AI think – or how does it work, philosophically speaking – and what will AI mean for society? This article explores AI as a form of intelligence in order to clarify what AI actually is and how it functions.
