In this course

Luciano Floridi is known for developing the method of levels of abstraction, a framework for analyzing complex systems that moves beyond rigid, individualistic, and mentalist approaches to embrace more inter-subjective and socially constructed perspectives. In these course readings, his work (particularly collaborations with Sanders) is invoked as a methodological tool for studying phenomenological and conceptual systems—offering a way to model AI and cybernetic phenomena that avoids both psychologism and reductionism. The method appears here as foundational epistemological scaffolding for the course's broader project of analyzing how abstraction operates across technical, social, and philosophical registers.
