In this episode, we explore the complex and often contentious relationship between ethics and artificial intelligence, delving into how human experiences and ethical judgments are shaped by our diverse backgrounds and perspectives. Through a thought-provoking discussion on public expressions, institutional control, and the growing field of AI ethics, we question whether AI might be amplifying existing power structures or offering a chance for disruption. Reflecting on Western institutional frameworks, the role of nation-states, and the challenges of meaning-making, we ask: What are we forfeiting by relying on external authorities to define good and bad? And what opportunities might emerge as we face the potential collapse of centralized powers?
