"Panel Two - All, and then Some (Moderation)";
Talk: Sophistication Conference #3. Copia and Copiousness. Circuitous Articulations that Matter, TU Wien (invited); 2019-11-14 - 2019-11-16.

How can we find a novel understanding of human intellectuality in co-existence with artificial intelligence? The Sophistication Conferences are dedicated to a basic kind of literacy in how to think about coding as an "alloy-praxis" that glues letters with numbers, physics with information, mathematics with language. If the digital has placed us in an era of New Sophistics, we need an up-to-date corresponding discourse on Sophistication. At the core of such a new materialist literacy is a different relationality among time, nature, subject, and object : Hence our interest is in a »digital gnomonics« that could provide a theoretical framework for addressing computational modelling, machine learning and algorithmic reasoning in a manner that will eventually propel and facilitate ethics, not moralism.
