Je suis en train de demander à ChatGPT si des textes ont été rédigés par une IA ou non. Je l'avais déjà fait l'année dernière. Verdict : les progrès sont énormes. ChatGPT ne va pas forcément dans mon sens, donne des arguments nombreux, précis, nuancés. Je suis soufflé.

Starting back a thread about (some of) my philosophical readings. I certainly won't read one paper or chapter a day like I once did, but hopefully it will help me re-start reading more than I have for the past few years!

C'est un suspense très limité tout de même :) Et l'attente sera brève car ce devrait être pour le printemps prochain.

J'ai eu grand plaisir à collaborer avec mes trois collègues et amis, à tel point que j'ai ensuite écrit un autre ouvrage avec l'un d'entre eux - mais je vous en reparlerai car ce sera pour l'année prochaine !

Covid-19 : enjeux éthiques et épistémologiques – Carnet de recherche du projet ANR Epancopi

Notre but, comme dans le projet et le blog (epancopi.hypotheses.org) qui ont donné naissance au livre : discuter des thèmes brûlants liés aux pandémies, mais avec des arguments parfois peu entendus, et que l'on espère à la fois nuancés et précis !

Dans une semaine (le 24 septembre) sortira ce livre écrit à 8 mains, avec @floriancova.bsky.social , @ferrydanini.bsky.social et
@samlepine.bsky.social.

C'est court et n'importe qui peut le lire !
On y discute plusieurs thèmes liés aux pandémies, en éthique et en philosophie des sciences.👇

Merci beaucoup pour vos messages, je suis très heureux si quoi que ce soit que nous ayons écrit a pu être utile.
Concernant le livre, son sujet est différent de celui de la vidéo que vous mentionnez. Il se focalise davantage sur les pandémies et la santé publique que sur la recherche médicale.

No, thank *you* for this very useful paper (as well as your related BJPS one, one year later). One day I'll have to check your other ones and your book as well!
