Descrição
Resumo:Although the field of artificial intelligence (AI) has made extensive use of anthropomorphism as an interaction between humans and machines, little attention has been paid to research on anthropomorphism as a category of AI. This attention is even less when it comes to philosophically discussing the conceptualization of an anthropomorphized AI. This paper aims to philosophically understand the scope of anthropomorphism in conversational AI. Thus, first, the formative aspects of this technology were presented. Then, the mechanisms of anthropomorphism that structure it were investigated. Finally, to support the discussion, Daniel Dennett's functionalist approach was used, as well as the concepts present in John Searle's philosophy on intentionality and the Chinese room experiment. This work therefore develops a comparison between these two philosophers on anthropomorphism in conversational AI.
