Nudging Choices Through Media
This book addresses the growing use of computerized systems to influence people’s decisions without their awareness
“Surveyability” in Hilbert, Wittgenstein and Turing
An investigation of the concept of “surveyability” as traced through the thought of Hilbert, Wittgenstein, and Turing. The communicability and reproducibility of proof, with certainty, are seen as earmarked by the “surveyability” of symbols, sequences, and structures of proof in all these thinkers. Hilbert initiated the idea within his metamathematics, Wittgenstein took up a kind of game formalism in the 1920s and early 1930s in response. Turing …

L'idée de « progrès » en philosophie, ancrée dans la devise des Recherches Philosophiques , est à la fois grammaticale et autobiographique. Où se trouvait le progrès de Wittgenstein dans les années qui avaient suivi le Tractatus ? Quelles leçons tirer de son parcours ? Pour répondre à la question, il faut repenser la manière dont la grammaire du « progrès » doit être pesée et mesurée en philosophie. Nous nous appuyons sur l'essai de Jacques Bouve…
Wittgenstein on ethics
In his Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, Wittgenstein conveyed the idea that ethics cannot be located in an object or self-standing subject matter of propositional discourse, true or false. At the same time, he took his work to have an eminently ethical purpose, and his attitude was not that of the emotivist. The trajectory of this conception of the normativity of philosophy as it developed in his subsequent thought is traced. It is explained that …
Teaching and Learning with Wittgenstein and Turing
Sawyer seminar 2016-2019 (www.mellophilemerge.com) reveal that social and philosophical drives are increasingly central to our uses of technology, including AI. This raises critical challenges for democracy, especially in a hyperconnected world where social media shapes human conduct in ways we are only beginning to appreciate
Journalism and Truth in an Age of Social Media
This edited volume examines how the growth of social media and ancillary computer systems is affecting the relationship between journalism and the pursuit of truth. Experts explore how news is perceived and identified, presented to the public, and how the public responds to news. They consider social media’s effect on the craft of journalism as well as the growing role of algorithms, big data, and automatic content production regimes. The volume’…
Lebensformen
Wittgenstein’s explicitly interlocutory style of philosophizing and writing, along with his use of the notion of Lebensform, first appeared in 1936-1937. Here we give an account of why. Lebensform plays an important elucidatory role in Wittgenstein’s later conception of philosophy, and is distinguished from the notion of Lebenswelt familiar in phenomenology. In utilizing the notion of “form”, rather than “world”, Wittgenstein indicates his preocc…
