Yale student's AI chatbot makes complex writings on AI ethics accessible

Yale student Nicolas Gertler created an AI chatbot called LuFlot to make Yale philosopher Luciano Floridi's works more accessible.

LuFlot provides free, easy-to-understand answers to questions about Floridi's writings on the ethics of AI and information.

The chatbot allows broader engagement with complex issues by citing sources and allowing follow-up questions.

Floridi is impressed by the tool's ability to draw connections he didn't see across decades of his writings.

Such AI chatbots have potential to transform teaching and learning by tailoring responses to users' queries.
