Humanism and AI - A discussion
From FH. How will AI impact the 10 Commitments of Humanism? Humanists eschew seeking supernatural help, figuring that humans are both responsible and most capable, but how does AI fit into that, being created by humans as a problem-solving tool? Could AI become such a crutch that we lose the very ability to practice critical thinking in its absence? How might it impact equality or equity among humans, and/or our ability to thrive and excel? Join HGP members Amanda Feller, PhD, and David DiNucci, PhD, for a discussion, extending the topic of the HGP Del Allen Scholarship essays (June 21 Program and June newsletter).
What is Humanism?
Humanism is a way of life that guides us to be well and to do good without relying on anything supernatural. It's a progressive philosophy that embraces reason, compassion, and the pursuit of knowledge.
We welcome atheists, agnostics, truth-seekers, and anyone interested in exploring ethical living, critical thinking, and community building based on humanist principles.
Science & Reason
We value evidence-based thinking and scientific inquiry as paths to understanding our world.
Community
Building meaningful connections and supporting one another in our shared human experience.
Compassion
Promoting ethics, social justice, and care for all people through humanist values.
