| 摘要 |
「事實上，在2025年初香港中文大學新聞與傳播學院六十週年國際會議上，我發表的論文也提到了『佛學AI』的設計。這當中蘊含了相近的倫理考量：當我們在構想AI的程式邏輯時，能否讓它不只計算『對自身』最有利的方案，還能計算『對其他生物或機器』最有利的方案？」—卡林迪．沃拉教授 |
| Abstract |
In this dialogue, Professor Kalindi Vora shares insights from her extensive interdisciplinary background as an anthropologist. Beginning with the concept of “Desirable AI,” the conversation explores what a critical inquiry into technology should truly entail. Given that science and technology are never neutral, the discussion highlights how they are deeply embedded in cultural assumptions and are often “imagined” into existence by a narrow group of designers. Drawing on examples ranging from global labor outsourcing to assisted reproduction, the dialogue establishes “care” as a central concern. Professor Vora stresses the urgent need to broaden technological imaginations by integrating ethical frameworks—such as “Buddhist AI”—and robust concepts of care into the earliest stages of design. By recognizing the invisible labor and “embodied knowledge” that sustains automation, the dialogue calls for a humanistic, interdisciplinary approach that prioritizes social relations over mere efficiency. Ultimately, this perspective seeks to ensure that the future of technology truly serves the flourishing of humanity.
