Artificial Intelligence and divine understanding: lecture by Prof. Dominique Bourg

As part of its lecture series for the 2025-2026 academic year, Euromed University of Fes organized a conference dedicated to the links between artificial intelligence, human thought and spiritual questioning, offering a space for reflection on contemporary transformations of the relationship to knowledge in the digital age.

Presented by Prof. Dominique Bourg, philosopher and professor emeritus at the University of Lausanne, this talk offered a philosophical reading of the issues raised by the development of intelligent technologies, addressing the limits of technological rationality as well as the place of the human being in the face of current scientific and societal changes.

Through this lecture, participants were invited to question the boundaries between human intelligence and artificial intelligence, through reflections on the notion of understanding, the search for meaning and new forms of comprehension of the world in a context marked by technological acceleration.

This meeting is part of UEMF's desire to promote interdisciplinary dialogue and critical thinking, by encouraging academic exchanges around major contemporary philosophical, scientific and societal issues.
