Progressive AI: How Next-Gen Models Are Shaping Our Philosophical Future

In an illuminating experiment conducted on January 27, 2025, an independent researcher embarked on a journey to understand how advanced AI systems—DeepSeek-R1, GPT-4o, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, Gemini 1.5, and Grok-2—are engaging with critical philosophical questions from the PhilPapers 2020 survey. This initiative not only showcases the remarkable capacity of AI to contribute to deep philosophical discourse but also emphasizes the importance of integrating diverse AI perspectives into shaping a more inclusive and progressive future. The findings highlight the urgent need for equitable AI development policies that prioritize ethical considerations and societal impact, ensuring that these technologies reflect a wide spectrum of human values and beliefs.
