On anthropomorphic bias…
These anthropomorphic mistakes,
“can affect our ability to understand and
assess the potential of these technologies.”

Curiosity & Desire
AI-Systems have the potential to assist
humans in their pursuit of knowledge
and truth, however these systems are
not able to have human desire,
passion and curiosity which drives
science and discovery.
This is why it is important to decouple
human knowledge from algorithmic
knowledge representation.

03 OF ANTHROPOMORPHIC RESTRAINT
“The most critical question in
the time of so-called
“intelligent” technologies and
systems is how to use them
in order to reinvigorate, and
not to undermine human
autonomy, agency and self-
determination at an individual
and – most importantly – at a
collective level. This desire is
the driving force behind the
creation of the global Council
on Extended Intelligence.”
– Konstantinos Karachalios
IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) and & MIT Media Lab
Council on Extended Intelligence
A technology as important as AI-Systems which will be
employed across every industry and affect every single
one of our lives, should be communicated in a way that
does not de-humanize the human experience.
I hope this will be the strate to a continued conversation
about how we can best communicate the use-cases and
capabilities of AI-Systems in a way that allows for a more
open and robust conversation on not just the
opportunities, but the risks that need to be mitigated.
I hope this will be the start of a continued
