İNSANIN EKSİKLİĞİ VE FAZLALIĞI I Yanlış Okumalar I Yalın Alpay & Gürman Timurhan I 24

In the new episode of "Misreadings," presented by Ivory Workshop, Yalın Alpay and Gürman Timurhan discuss the structural tension between humanity and the world. Humans perceive the world not as it is, but only to the extent of their mind's capacity for representation. Therefore, they always participate in the world with a certain incompleteness. But at the same time, they produce concepts that have no direct equivalent in the world—freedom, happiness, love, meaning—and add an excess to the world. Humanity's unending restlessness stems precisely from the tension between these two extremes. How have the great technological leaps, from fire to writing, from the wheel to electricity, from the internet to artificial intelligence, transformed the way humans perceive themselves and the world? Every new technology not only makes life easier; it also reshapes our ways of thinking, social relations, and power structures. Today, at the final link in this historical chain, we are faced with artificial intelligence systems that possess processing capacities exceeding the limits of human mental capacity. Artificial intelligence is not treated here as a technical issue; it is considered a threshold that makes visible once again humanity's historical desire for an intelligence "superior" to itself. Yalın Alpay and Gürman Timurhan explore this theme in this episode.
