Lee Jung-won: The Ontology of Artificial Intelligence

The appearance of the Spring of '20 Alphago was a great shock to our society. AI, recognized as a smart tool of human use, has given rise to fear that it may threaten us as an autonomous act. So where did that feeling of fear come from, and why did we feel afraid of Alphago? That fear is that the digital scenario of science fiction movies we're used to is either a strong-restricted fiction or a viable reality? To actually and meaningfully respond to this question requires a comprehensive, deep-integrating analysis of the nature of artificial intelligence, of the status of being, of social roles. Nine researchers, including philosophers and engineers, ask a multi-dimensional question about another intelligent person, beyond the philosophy of the earlier days that asked for human existence.
