Skepticism toward accelerationism, wariness of transhumanism-and a call for distinct civilizational futures, not Western tech inevitability. Russia charts its own path.
I had the honor of being invited to speak at the Congress "Philosophy of the Future: Ideas and Meanings," which was organized by Lomonosov Moscow State University on June 26 and 27.
The general thematic axis of the Congress - "the future" - was sufficiently open to allow for a certain wide margin of approaches and orientations, but I think no one will be surprised to learn that most of the speeches concerned new technologies and their relationships with humanity, with a pronounced focus on the topic of AI.
