    Designing with Planetary Artificial Intelligence
    (Taylor and Francis, 2024) Chilet Bustamante, Marcos Fernando; Tironi Rodó, Martín Carlos; Nicenboim, Iohanna; Lindley, Joseph
    This chapter proposes a more-than-human-design (MTHD) approach to engage with the future of artificial intelligence (AI). It argues that AI presents significant challenges for human-centred design and that designers need to adopt new ways of thinking about AI beyond the anthropocentric paradigm. The chapter proposes that AI is a planetary technology that uses and expands extractivism. An MTHD approach can help designers propose alternatives to the development of anthropocentric AI and remain open to new forms of experimentation. The text explores the limitations of the current design approaches to address the challenges posed by AI. Furthermore, it proposes why a more-than-human design approach may constitute a promising alternative whilst suggesting what this practice might look like. This chapter explores and discusses MTHD approaches to AI as a planetary phenomenon through two concrete cases: Hybrid Ecologies by Manuela Garretón and Martín Tironi and MoTH by Iohanna Nicenboim and Joseph Lindley.

    Scientific Understanding in Astronomical Models from Eudoxus to Kepler
    (Springer Science and Business Media B.V., 2023) Acuña Luongo, Pablo Thomas
    In the following essay I present a narrative of the development of astronomical models from Eudoxus to Kepler, as a case-study that vindicates an insightful and influential recent account of the concept of scientific understanding. Since this episode in the history of science and the concept of understanding are subjects to which Professor Roberto Torretti has dedicated two wonderful books—De Eudoxo a Newton: modelos matemáticos en la filosofía natural (2007), and Creative Understanding: philosophical reflections on physics (1990), respectively—this essay is my contribution to celebrate his outstanding work and career in this volume. I dedicate this piece to Roberto, dear friend and mentor, in gratitude for all his inspirational work and personal support, which has greatly helped me, and many others, to better understand that human wonder we call scientific knowledge.
