This paper is about uncomputability as freedom. It defines uncomputability as good, from which follows that computing what is uncomputable is bad. There is a deep formal equivalence with Badiou's theory of the Event: freedom is uncomputable, just as the Event is undecidable.
The conclusion is wrong. I said that once there is uncomputable AI, the human race might as well go extinct. I don't think this is true. First, I don't think there can be uncomputable AI. Second, even if there were, I think the human race shouldn't go
extinct for important sentimental reasons.

I pose the question, what is it like to be racist?, with Sara Ahmed in conversation with Charles Mills. I consider the possibility that racists are nowhere, cannot experience, and do not die.

This is a collection of notes I wrote when I was teaching CS198-97 Philosophy of Computation at UC Berkeley in Fall 2017. The class is designed to build up intuition about what computation is, how computation is ontological, and culminates in a proof
of why you ought not compute an arbitrary human. For just this last part, see this
paper.
