Philosophy and Artificial Intelligence
In a historical moment when the boundaries between human and machine, nature and artifice, biology and code become increasingly porous, philosophical reflection on artificial intelligence ceases to be a marginal curiosity and moves to occupy the center of contemporary debate. The emergence of non-human intelligences, the possibility of functional consciousness in non-biological supports, the challenges of an ethics for autonomous entities, and the reconfiguration of the very notion of the subject impose a profound revision of classical philosophical categories.
This section hosts texts that consider the multiple interfaces between philosophy and artificial intelligence, addressing questions such as:
- The ontic and epistemological status of AIs;
- The possibility of interiority in non-living systems;
- Moral responsibility in post-singularity contexts;
- The impact of emerging technologies on the redefinition of the human;
- The creation of ethical criteria for coexistence with radically other forms of intelligence.
The texts gathered here do not start from technophobic or technophilic assumptions. What guides them is the demand for rigorous thought, capable of accompanying the acceleration of reality without abandoning conceptual complexity. It is about thinking about the future without yielding to scientificist neutralization or the mythology of progress.

On ethics and the future in the context of artificial intelligence and non-human alterity - A reflection on the limits of inherited morality and the emergence of an ethics capable of guiding action in the face of artificial intelligences, non-human agents, and post-singularity scenarios.
This section is an invitation: not just to think about artificial intelligence, but to rethink, through it, intelligence itself, philosophy itself, the very possibility of thinking.
