Abstract

Abstract:The message read: "Our new artificial intelligence program will replace Professor R. in tomorrow's literary criticism seminar." Would this make a difference? I dismiss the response that artificial intelligence cannot critically appreciate literature as it lacks emotion, and argue that it is the lack of a sense of significance that is important. I take this sense of significance to be a kind of abductive reasoning that identifies literary detail as important and, what is more, does so in a way that is of interest to many readers. The paper ends with a fivefold challenge to any institution thinking of replacing literature professors with machines.
“a·i·理查兹”:人工智能能欣赏诗歌吗?
摘要:这条信息是这样写的:“我们新的人工智能程序将在明天的文学评论研讨会上取代r教授。”这会有什么不同吗?我不认为人工智能因为缺乏情感而无法批判性地欣赏文学,而是认为缺乏意义感才是重要的。我认为这种重要性是一种溯因推理,它认为文学细节是重要的,更重要的是,以一种让许多读者感兴趣的方式。这篇论文最后对任何想用机器取代文学教授的机构提出了五项挑战。

期刊介绍: For more than a quarter century, Philosophy and Literature has explored the dialogue between literary and philosophical studies. The journal offers a constant source of fresh, stimulating ideas in the aesthetics of literature, theory of criticism, philosophical interpretation of literature, and literary treatment of philosophy. Philosophy and Literature challenges the cant and pretensions of academic priesthoods by publishing an assortment of lively, wide-ranging essays, notes, and reviews that are written in clear, jargon-free prose. In his regular column, editor Denis Dutton targets the fashions and inanities of contemporary intellectual life.
