I hate linking to LinkedIn, even though it appears people can read this without a login, because access is so tenuous. I don't know why people don't do their writing on a proper blog. Anyhow. I wanted to link to this item, which reviews Judith Butler's Giving an Account of Oneself (sadly behind a paywall) because it makes an important point. For Butler, "Many contemporary AI-disclosure practices seek to identify and isolate machine participation as though intellectual activity ordinarily originates within a self-contained individual whose boundaries can be clearly identified and preserved. Increasingly complex forms of human-AI interaction disrupt those assumptions." We don't develop our thoughts and ideas in isolation, usually: we develop them through interaction with other people, the world, and these days, computers. For Butler, "subjects are required to make themselves intelligible through normative frameworks incapable of accounting for the experiences they are being asked to disclose."
