In this talk I want to ask how and in what ways “truth” manifests itself, both in a era of cybernetics and artificial intelligence, and ask whether there is anything else that we can mean by “truth”?

Laurence is of course a long-time contributor to the CTF seminar series. He is an is an Honorary Professor both in the Management School and in PPR, and has been associated with Lancaster in various ways since 2008. He is Director of the Knapp Foundation, an independent academic research trust in the UK. He has published several books on Heidegger, some of them arising from lectures and research initiatives begun at Lancaster. With Bogdan Costea, in 2017 he published a translation of Ernst Jünger’s 1932 book The Worker. He is currently preparing a translation of Heidegger’s lectures on Anaximander, an edited collection on Parmenides, and continues to be interested in the intersection between metaphysics and management.
