Mark Coeckelbergh is a Professor of Philosophy of Media and Technology at the University of Vienna. He is co-author of “Communicative AI: A critical introduction to large language models” as well as the author of “Why AI Undermines Our Democracy: and what to do about it.”
This is an interview for the CRT (Culture, Religion and Technology) podcast, produced by our partners WeOverMe and Voz Media. In our interview, we discuss how AI will affect the job of journalists and authors. How he as a professor evaluates essays, which could be written with the help of ChatGPT. I also ask him how students should prepare for a world in which AI replaces all the entry-level jobs. Later in the interview, we discuss how AI undermines our ability to learn and therefore undermines our ability to participate in the democratic process.
