The Hesitant Minds: The Weight of Choice Before the New

About the work

Philosophical essay examining the structural limitations of inherited morality when facing unprecedented dilemmas arising from the rapid emergence of artificial intelligences, human–machine hybrids, and non-human life forms. The text draws a precise distinction between morality and ethics, arguing that only a critical, adaptive, and situated ethics can provide coherent guidance in a future without historical precedent. It engages with Kant, Levinas, and Hans Jonas, and is articulated within the framework of the Ontology of Emerging Complexity.
