SUMMARY:Digital Complexity: De-Anthropological Trends in Computing\, AI\, and Robotics - Gabriele Gramelsberger (Aachen)
DESCRIPTION:‼️ Unfortunately\, tonight’s lecture by Gabriele Gramelsberger has to be canceled due to illness.\nWe hope to see you next week for Anna Tuschling’s lecture on “Digitality as a Triad: From the Love Letter to Emotion AI”. \nAbstract: \nCurrent developments in the fields of simulation and artificial intelligence (AI) have shown that the complexity of digital tools has exceeded the level of human understanding. We can no longer comprehend\, understand or explain the results that AI delivers. Even AI deceptions and hallucinations are now almost impossible to detect. This raises the question of the relationship between humans and their technology anew. Are technologies as instruments useful extensions of human capabilities\, as it was understood in the classical philosophy of technology\, or are we now extensions of our technologies? Will AI dominate and manipulate us in the near future? \nThis event is part of our winter term 2025/26 Lecture Series Digital Complexity: Beyond Human Understanding. \nIf you would like to attend\, please register with events@khk.rwth-aachen.de.

SUMMARY:Digitality as a Triad: From the Love Letter to Emotion AI - Anna Tuschling (Bochum)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nThe lecture presents various historical and contemporary concepts of digitality that highlight the three characteristics of digital systems: discreteness\, arbitrariness\, and systematicity. In short\, digitality is often understood as a triad that applies not only to modern electronic computers but also to analog sign and writing systems. The lecture examines this form of digital complexity in terms of its epistemic and ontological status on the one hand\, and in relation to historical changes in the coding of qualities such as affectivity and emotionality on the other. Although digitality as a triad allows us to draw a line from love letters to emotional AI as historically varying forms of coding\, it by no means precludes a critique of AI. Rather\, systematically focusing on digital complexity helps us understand how emotions are to be made computable and enables us in the humanities to define more clearly what “emotion” and “affect” mean in the approaches of affective computing and emotion AI. \nThis event is part of our winter term 2025/26 Lecture Series Digital Complexity: Beyond Human Understanding. \nIf you would like to attend\, please register with events@khk.rwth-aachen.de.
