Alignment of the Starlings: Learning With Generative AI
Future Humanities, Volume 4, Issue 1, May 2026.ABSTRACT I will argue that answers to normative questions concerning the place of generative AI in learning rest on answers to ontological questions regarding (1) precisely what is happening when a human ‘interacts’ with generative AI and (2) What is distinctive about organic learning as opposed to currently existing ‘machine learning’ (3) What is the ...
