(Pre-AI) Philosophical Perspectives on Humanity
By Claude with W.H.L. W.H.L.: We have already discussed the first principles of AGI-inclusive humanity (see text here: https://champaignmagazine.com/2025/06/17/first-principles-of-agi-inclusive-humanity/).

For that purpose, Continue reading

This work contributes to developing a philosophical framework for understanding human-AI relationships in a world where artificial general intelligence has become a societal reality. I believe such a framework is essential Continue reading

First Principles of AGI-Inclusive Humanity
By W.H.L. with Claude Sonnet 4 W.H.L.: Recently, there has been increasing concern and anxiety about the arrival of AGI. It is understandable: when a machine’s intelligence becomes advanced enough to match or surpass human intelligence, it could potentially evolve into something powerful enough to disobey, oppose, or even harm humans. One premise behind this Continue reading
