CONTENT BACKGROUND OF THE PODCAST SEMINAR:

"What is called thinking?" The question Martin Heidegger asked in
his lecture of 1951/52 reads like a counter-question to the one
Alan Turing had asked a year earlier in his essay Computing
Machinery and Intelligence: "Can a machine think?“ Both ways of
asking the same question are more relevant today than ever
before. The attempt to define ‘thinking’ by the Turing Test has
sort of „programmed“ computer development in such a way that
software seems to be able to perform more and more human thinking
without having developed a consciousness or what Heidegger called
a Da-Sein (being there). But is AI therefore really thinking? Or
vice versa: Is the human consciousness still needed under these
conditions? And what for?

The course was dedicated to the comparison and interplay of
artificial and human intelligence, addressing the latest theories
and newest software solutions. It was designed as a podcast
seminar to which proven experts in the field were invited.
