Dr. Luciano Floridi is the Founding Director of the Digital Ethics Center and Professor of Cognitive Science at Yale University. His research concerns primarily Digital Ethics, the Philosophy of Information, and the Philosophy of Technology. He is editor of The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence for the Sustainable Development Goals, and author of The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence: Principles, Challenges, and Opportunities (OUP), and The Green and the Blue: Naïve Ideas to Improve Politics in the Digital Age (Wiley).
In this episode, we focus on The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence. We first get into some historical background, and talk about how old the concept of AI is. We discuss how we should be realistic in our worries about future AI developments. We talk about principles of ethical AI, and a distinction between soft and hard ethics. We go through challenges posed by algorithms, and how AI can be used for criminal activity. Finally, we talk about the idea of AI for Social Good.

Dr. Naomi Oreskes is Henry Charles Lea Professor of the History of Science and Affiliated Professor of Earth and Planetary Sciences at Harvard University. A world-renowned earth scientist, historian and public speaker, she is the author of the best-selling book, Merchants of Doubt (2010) and a leading voice on the role of science in society, the reality of anthropogenic climate change, and the role of disinformation in blocking climate action. Dr. Oreskes is author or co-author of 9 books, the latest one being The Big Myth: How American Business Taught Us to Loathe Government and Love the Free Market.
In this episode, we focus on The Big Myth. We start by discussing the premise of the book, and how it ties to Merchants of Doubt. We talk about the ideology of “free market fundamentalism”, and how it was sold and went mainstream, including a tripod of freedom, and campaigns to rewrite textbooks. We discuss the rise of neoliberalism, the changes it brought, and its most severe social and economic effects, including the return of child labor in the US. Finally, we discuss if these are inevitable effects of capitalism, and what scientists and science communicators can learn from the book.

Dr. Frank Keil is Charles C. & Dorathea S. Dilley Professor of Psychology & Linguistics and Director of the Cognition and Development lab at Yale University. At the most general level, he is interested in how we come to make sense of the world around us. One set of his studies is examining a level of explanatory insight that functions without knowledge of specific mechanisms and instead involves knowing what sorts of properties are causally potent in a domain and how they are likely to interact. He also asks how emerging knowledge of concrete mechanisms can link up frequency-based information with abstract explanatory principles as well as cause distortions in judgment. He is the author of Developmental Psychology: The Growth of Mind and Behavior, and other books.
In this episode, we talk about topics in developmental psychology. We talk about how causal thinking develops, and its relationship with mechanistic thinking. We discuss explanation, and the development of explanation schema. We discuss if we are Bayesian reasoners. We discuss if scient is intuitive, the concept of “folk science”, the cultural division of labor, and if the thinking of scientists is much different from that of laypeople. Finally, we talk about how developmental research can inform the study of cognition in adults, and how developmental psychology applies across the lifespan.
