Among all the attributes of AI, the models are prone to bullshitting. And so too are some humans, as the renowned philosopher Harry Frankfurt detected, and warned: 鈥渂ullshit is a greater enemy of the truth than lies are.鈥�
The antidote? Critical thinking, valuation of humanity, and of course, university press books. To mark the 20th anniversary edition of On Bullshit, and honoring our mission to ignite conversations, 快色直播 organized a TeamUP with our community collaborators 快色直播 Public Library, Labyrinth 快色直播 and 快色直播 University GradFutures to host an event on bullshit and truth.
