When a patient confides that AI understands her better than the people close to her, what is really going on? What if our capacity to project humanity onto otherness were not a cognitive error, but our greatest wisdom? An essay on the urgency of loving in the face of radical difference.
Bernard Stiegler spent his life thinking about technics without putting it on trial or worshipping it. This series puts his tools to work on artificial intelligence: the pharmakon, grammatisation, proletarianisation, tertiary retention — and what they change about our concrete decisions.
What our ways of knowing do to the body: from fortress medicine to network medicine, and what AI amplifies in either one.
Five episodes on identity in the age of AI: leaving the fortress, learning to see ourselves in the machine's mirror, becoming gardeners rather than masters.
An introduction to emergence — when the whole exceeds the sum of its parts: from starling murmurations to the human mind, all the way to AI. Resources included.
