As AI systems continue to improve, we may give them so much power that humanity "loses control of its future". Should we be worried? Some philosophers have argued that this sort of domination is always bad because of the characteristic harms it causes. Professor D'Alessandro will argue that, in fact, powerful AI might dominate humans without causing these harms.

Bill D'Alessandro is an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at William & Mary. He  works on philosophy of science and mathematics, epistemology,  ethics and philosophy of AI. He was previously a postdoctoral fellow at the  University of Oxford, LMU Munich and the Center for AI Safety.
