David Watson
AbstractUnsupervised learning algorithms are widely used for many important statistical tasks with numerous applications in science and industry. Yet despite their prevalence, they have attracted remarkably little philosophical scrutiny to date. This stands in stark contrast to supervised and reinforcement learning algorithms, which have been widely studied and cri...... hiện toàn bộ

Unintentional Trolling: How Subjects Express Their Prejudices Through Made-up Stories
Philosophy & Technology - Tập 34 - Trang 667-682 - 2020
René Baston, Benedict Kenyah-Damptey
It is often assumed that trolling is an intentional action. The aim of the paper is to argue for a form of unintentional trolling. Firstly, we outline minimal conditions for intentional actions. Secondly, an unintentional trolling example is introduced. Thirdly, we will show that in some cases, an utterance can be expressive, while it is perceived as descriptive. On the basis of the justification-...... hiện toàn bộ
Modeling Climate Policies: A Critical Look at Integrated Assessment Models
Philosophy & Technology - Tập 26 - Trang 117-137 - 2013
Mathias Frisch
Climate change presents us with a problem of intergenerational justice. While any costs associated with climate change mitigation measures will have to be borne by the world’s present generation, the main beneficiaries of mitigation measures will be future generations. This raises the question to what extent present generations have a responsibility to shoulder these costs. One influential approac...... hiện toàn bộ

Philosophy & Technology - Tập 35 - Trang 1-20 - 2022
Ulrik Franke
Recent advances in artificial intelligence offer many beneficial prospects. However, concerns have been raised about the opacity of decisions made by these systems, some of which have turned out to be biased in various ways. This article makes a contribution to a growing body of literature on how to make systems for automated decision-making more transparent, explainable, and fair by drawing atten...... hiện toàn bộ

AbstractNovel technological devices, applications, and algorithms can provide us with a vast amount of personal information about ourselves. Given that we have ethical and practical reasons to pursue self-knowledge, should we use technology to increase our self-knowledge? And which ethical issues arise from the pursuit of technologically sourced self-knowledge? In ...... hiện toàn bộ
Digital Despotism and Aristotle on the Despotic Master–Slave Relation
Philosophy & Technology - Tập 36 - Trang 1-22 - 2023
Ziyaad Bhorat
This paper analyzes a contemporary conception of digital despotism through themes drawn from classical Greek philosophy. By taking as a measure some of the most radically excluded categories of human existence, Aristotle’s slave and slavish types, I offer a way to understand digital despotism as a syndrome of overlapping risks to human impairment, brought about by the advent of automated data proc...... hiện toàn bộ
Accuracy and Interpretability: Struggling with the Epistemic Foundations of Machine Learning-Generated Medical Information and Their Practical Implications for the Doctor-Patient Relationship
Philosophy & Technology - Tập 35 - Trang 1-20 - 2022
Florian Funer
The initial successes in recent years in harnessing machine learning (ML) technologies to improve medical practice and benefit patients have attracted attention in a wide range of healthcare fields. Particularly, it should be achieved by providing automated decision recommendations to the treating clinician. Some hopes placed in such ML-based systems for healthcare, however, seem to be unwarranted...... hiện toàn bộ
