DESCRIPTION:Abstract: AI systems based on large language models have becom
 e a significant cultural phenomenon. But what is the right way to think an
 d talk about these "exotic mind-like entities"? To what extent are concept
 s like understanding\, thinking\, and consciousness relevant? In this talk
  I will address these questions\, appealing to the concept of role-play as
  a way to draw on our natural fund of folk psychological concepts without 
 falling prey to anthropomorphism.\nSpeakers:\nProfessor Murray Shanahan (I
 mperial College London)\, Professor Rahul Santhanam (Computer Science\, Ox
 ford)\, Dr Anita Avramides (University of Oxford)
