AI is a tool, not an agent

The Institute of Arts and Ideas (IAI) published the article “AI is a tool, not an agent.” IAI is a London-based philosophical think tank renowned for its biannual festival, HowTheLightGetsIn.

The article is based on my two public lectures which I delivered under the auspices of The Osher Institute at Dartmouth College on 11/17/2023 and 6/7/2024.
