Description

The Moral Significance of Being Human. This Fellowship aims to explain and justify the moral significance of being human. This will be done through the development of an original philosophical framework, focused on addressing three critical challenges: human rights, aged care, and Artificial Intelligence (AI). The resulting framework will enable the generation of new knowledge about the foundations of human rights; which practices constitute dehumanisation; and what separates humans from AI. Expected outcomes of the project include advances in philosophical theorising; enhanced research capacity, through the development of an Early Career Researcher Network; and cross-disciplinary collaborations. . Scheme: ARC Future Fellowships. Field: 5003 - Philosophy. Lead: Dr Suzy Killmister
