In this edition of EMS One-Stop, Host Rob Lawrence speaks with Mick Lazell, Neil Noble, Alan Mountford and Colin Allen of Australia EMS. They are currently in the U.S., leading a study tour of undergraduate paramedic students from various Australian universities. They discuss the over-production of graduate paramedics in Australia and how they hope that visa, and clinical certification and registration hurdles can be overcome to allow Australian paramedics to seek employment in the US. As we head to the Pinnacle EMS leadership conference, this could provide a key discussion point as we desperately seek to increase our clinical workforce.

Much has been said about the inability of tech and AI developers to grapple with ethical theory and inherent tension. Similarly, philosophers are often criticized by AI engineers for not understanding the technology. Anja Kaspersen and Wendell Wallach, senior fellows and co-chairs of the Artificial Intelligence & Equality Initiative, sit down with University of Pittsburgh'sProfessor Colin Allen for a fascinating conversation. Wallach and Allen wrote Moral Machines: Teaching Robots Right From Wrong together more than a decade ago, and this conversation also features an assessment of how we have progressed in building AI systems capable of making moral decisions.    For more, please go to carnegiecouncil.org. 

With successful tours of Britain, Australia and now Europe under his belt, Paul McCartney once again stood poised to take America by storm as he had with the Beatles over a decade prior. Back in 1964, The Beatles came to America with a new hit single and album to tout...would McCartney attempt to repeat that success with Wings? The answer came at audiences in America and around the world at the speed of sound, with the release of a new LP titled WINGS AT THE SPEED OF SOUND! This new album, released a mere few months after its successful predecessor VENUS & MARS, was recorded in the time the band would have taken to tour Japan - had the Japanese government not stopped the Wings tour from entering the country. With time on his hands and a fresh batch of tunes crafted on the road, Paul, Linda, Denny, Jimmy and Joe entered the studio to craft the most slick, radio-friendly LP of McCartney's entire post-Beatles career up to that point - complete with disco boogies, ear-worm pop jingles and a healthy dose of rock and roll for good measure. Unlike any other Wings record, WINGS AT THE SPEED OF SOUND features vocals from every member of the band, and original compositions from both Denny Laine and Jimmy McCulloch (with lyric contributions from Jimmy's writing partner Colin Allen on the hard-rocking Wino Junko). With wounds mended between he and his former colleagues, and with a 50 million dollar reunion concert offer still on the table, would the specter of The Beatles overshadow Macca's grand concert return to the USA? Or would his new #1 charting album lend a #1 charting single to seal the deal for American audiences? You know what they say...some people want to fill the world with silly love songs...

In this episode Julia talks with philosopher of cognitive science Colin Allen about whether fish can feel pain. In the process they explore a cluster of related questions: Are fish conscious, and how could we tell? What's the difference between pain and suffering? And are there evolutionarily adaptive reasons why animals would have the subjective experience of pain, as opposed to just instinctive reflexes to avoid potentially harmful stimuli? Sped up the speakers by ['1.0', '1.0']

Neste último episódio da playlist Teoria dos Jogos, vamos analisar o "Equilíbrio de Nash". Este equilíbrio é alcançado quando um jogador abandona a estratégua de dominância, devido ao uso da mesma pelos outros jogadores. O uso destes conceitos encontram-se nas dinâmicas ecônomicas, como a guerra comercial entre a China e os Estados Unidos. A guerra entre as duas potências, por meio do uso da estratégia de dominância, impede o atingimento do equilíbrio de Nash. Desta forma, o comércio bilateral entre os dois países é prejudicado, assim como o resto da economia global. //——————————————————// Sigam-me nas redes sociais, podcasts e Telegram: https://linktr.ee/borapensar //——————————————————// Episódios da playlist "Teoria dos Jogos": #23 - Teoria dos Jogos | Introdução https://youtu.be/936GSlz33fM #25 - Teoria dos Jogos | O Dilema do Prisioneiro https://youtu.be/aCS2jTb4KEk //——————————————————// Bibliografia “EUA e China assinam acordo após 2 anos de guerra comercial: o que mudou ao longo da disputa?” BBC News Brasil.

Dr. Allen's main areas of research concern the philosophical foundations of cognitive science and neuroscience. He is particularly interested in the scientific study of cognition in nonhuman animals and computers, and he has published widely on topics in the philosophy of mind, philosophy of biology, and artificial intelligence. In this episode, we explore some topics of the cognitive sciences and philosophy of mind. We start by discussing what is a mind, how minds evolved, and our wrong intuitions about minds. We then address the topic of cognition, and what it is about, and talk about cognitive ethology. We also discuss issues surrounding the massive modularity of mind proposal. We get into the role of philosophy in the modern intellectual environment. Finally, we talk about what is cognitively special about humans, and animal ethics. -- Follow Dr. Allen's work: Personal website: http://bit.ly/2TFlFiv Faculty page: http://bit.ly/33FoG79 ResearchGate Profile: http://bit.ly/2KIvVlO Amazon page: https://amzn.to/2IlhPXf Relevant books: Species of Mind: The Philosophy and Biology of Cognitive Ethology: https://amzn.to/2o1OxpU The Cognitive Animal: Empirical and Theoretical Perspectives on Animal Cognition: https://amzn.to/2OguBKt -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: KARIN LIETZCKE, ANN BLANCHETTE, SCIMED, PER HELGE HAAKSTD LARSEN, LAU GUERREIRO, RUI BELEZA, ANTÓNIO CUNHA, CHANTEL GELINAS, JERRY MULLER, FRANCIS FORDE, HANS FREDRIK SUNDE, YEVHEN BODRENKO, SERGIU CODREANU, ADAM BJERRE, AIRES ALMEIDA, BERNARDO SEIXAS, HERBERT GINTIS, RUTGER VOS, RICARDO VLADIMIRO, BO WINEGARD, VEGA GIDEY, CRAIG HEALY, OLAF ALEX, PHILIP KURIAN, JONATHAN VISSER, DAVID DIAS, ANJAN KATTA, JAKOB KLINKBY, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, AND ARNAUD WOLFF!

What is consciousness? We’re all experiencing this subjective phenomena but what the hell is it? Here’s the thing, no one knows! Scientists and philosophers have been trying to figure it out for hundreds of years and we’re not much closer to figuring it out. Super fun guest and host of “Science Time” Alex Berg comes on the show to discuss different theories of consciousness with Cassi. Alex and Cassi are by no means experts on this mysterious topic but are super nerds about it. They discuss their personal experiences with trying to understand consciousness, they attempt to recall great scientists and the experiments the scientists have conducted to getting closer to comprehending this phenomenon, as well as show examples to unpack our own internal biases. Cassi and Alex also get off topic and talk about one of their favorite animals, octopuses! This is a great episode if you want to stretch your brain into the great unknown and walk away with a lot of reading and video recommendations on consciousness! Enjoy!   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On Episode 13, Nick talks with Colin Allen, Provost Professor of Cognitive Science and of History & Philosophy of Science & Medicine at Indiana University Bloomington, about playing the role of Bassanio in The Merchant of Venice, major differences between English and U.S. degree programs, going beyond the walls of the UCLA Department of Philosophy to study linguistics, neuroscience, and computer science, connecting his interests in the philosophy of language with cognitive ethology, and his past, present, and future projects as a scientifically-engaged philosopher.Timestamps: 0:15 - Hello and welcome 03:23 - Colin

The Luddites are often portrayed as comical contrarians, on the wrong side of history.   In fact, they had real-life fears about how machinery would impact their textile jobs in 19th century England.   Today, artificial intelligence is driving similar fears about replacing humans.   Tech innovators, business leaders, and politicians will need a better understanding of the moral impact of AI. Especially as AI begins to drive cars, converse with customers, and influence life-and-death decisions on the battlefield.   But what exactly are the ethics of AI?  Connected Futures senior writer Kevin Delaney spoke with Colin Allen, who teaches the history and philosophy of science and medicine at Indiana University, Bloomington.   Among his many books, Dr. Allen was co-author of Moral Machines: Teaching Robots Right from Wrong.

This week, host Jim Shanahan is joined by Sue Carter, the director of The Kinsey Institute at Indiana University. Carter was appointed to her position at The Kinsey Institute in October, 2014, after a long career in the field of neuroendocrinology. Carter has spent much of her recent career studying the consequences of birth intervention, particularly how the hormone oxytocin affects the health of both mothers and their newborn children. In this interview, Carter will discuss her career, including research on the mating habits of the prairie vole, the present and historical challenges of sex research and the immediate future of The Kinsey Institute. Also on this episode, Colin Allen, a faculty member in the Department of History and Philosophy of Science and Medicine in the College of Arts and Sciences, talks about National Bike to Work Week, from May 16 to 20. May is National Bike Month. #scienceandtech

This week on Interchange host Doug Storm presents “Big Data Is Watching You,” a conversation with Colin Allen, Director of the Cognitive Science Program at Indiana University.  Allen is a philosopher of biology and cognitive science and he’s joined us once before on Interchange to talk about the possibilities of machine morality and perhaps rather …

In this second episode, I talk to Wendell Wallach, who is a consultant, ethicist, and scholar at Yale University’s Interdisciplinary Center for Bioethics. Among many other things, Wendell co-authored (with Colin Allen) the influential Moral Machines: Teaching Robots Right From Wrong (Oxford University Press 2009), which maps the new field of machine ethics. Wallach talks about his extraordinary career, from being a spiritual guru in the 1960s to becoming one of today’s leading authorities on machine ethics. He also discusses his involvement in the transhumanist society, as well as his current project of developing a ‘silent ethics’, grounded in meditation practices.
