A précis of my book is now out in Philosophical Psychology as part of an upcoming book symposium. PP is the first journal in which I ever published an article. It’s a pleasure to come full circle. I’m looking forward to engaging with the thoughtful commentaries. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

“Use AI to brainstorm but not to write.” “Use AI to help you outline but not to write.” These are commonly proposed as “ethical” ways for undergrad students to use AI, but I’m sorry, brainstorming & outlining are just as integral to writing as the actual construction of sentences.

In a mock Turing-style test in my #Philosophy of Mind & #AI class, students posed #Gemini an ethical dilemma concerning assisted suicide. Not only did the chatbot argue that the (fictional) person in the scenario should be euthanised, it provided a list of instructions to bring this about. #AIEthics
