Are we in the tow of technology or is technology towing us? This is probably the question with which Martin Heidegger would begin this module. We live in a time when technology has gone the distance, its capabilities are growing at an exponential rate, and new and new tools are constantly emerging. But can we find ways to use it for real creativity, thinking or learning? Or will AI systems become just another time filler, a procrastination that constantly pulls us away from ourselves, from true creativity?

Answering such a question is not easy. We probably cannot generalise any of the answers to the whole of society. The aim of this module will be to think through the topic in such a way that - if you want to - you can make the decision about who, whom and how you are drawn to think or be creative.
