CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS for a topical issue of *Open Philosophy* ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND PHILOSOPHICAL HEALTH
*Open Philosophy* (https://www.degruyter.com/opphil) invites submissions for the topical issue "Artificial Intelligence and Philosophical Health," edited by Dr Luis de Miranda (University of Turku, Finland). DESCRIPTION In recent years, the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence has sparked intense debate about its impacts on human cognition, society, and our fundamental understanding of intelligence, purpose and consciousness. Concurrently, there has been a resurgence of interest in practical philosophy and its potential to enhance human well-being, as evidenced by the growing field of philosophical practice and counseling. The concept of “philosophical health” has emerged in two recent books (Bloomsbury, 2024) as a holistic framework for understanding and cultivating human well-being and planetary compossibility through philosophical practice. It goes beyond mere critical thinking or reflection, encompassing a comprehensive approach to life that integrates bodily awareness, self-understanding, a sense of belonging, an appreciation for possibility, a clear sense of purpose, and a coherent worldview. This topical issue aims to bring these two cutting-edge areas into dialogue, exploring the complex interplay between AI and flourishing. As AI systems become more advanced and pervasive in society, there is a need to examine how they may impact philosophical health, as well as how philosophical health approaches, for instance its sense-making methodology, can inform the ethical development of AI. Potential topics may include, among others: - Conceptual foundations of philosophical health and how they might be reshaped by an AI context. - AI’s effects on human cognition, reasoning, and sense-making. - Using AI as a tool for philosophical practice and counseling. - Ethical considerations in AI design to support philosophical health. - Comparisons between human and artificial philosophical reasoning. - Impacts of AI on human autonomy, agency, and self-understanding. - Cultivating wisdom and philosophical health in an AI-driven world. We welcome submissions from philosophers, cognitive scientists, AI researchers, and other relevant disciplines. The goal is to foster interdisciplinary dialogue on this important emerging area at the intersection of philosophy, technology, and human flourishing. We will privilege articles that engage at least minimally, creatively or critically, with the recent literature in “Philosophical Health”, in particular the two books,*Philosophical Health: A Practical Introduction* (Bloomsbury, 2024), and *Philosophical Health: Thinking as a Way of Healing* (Bloomsbury, 2024).
