APA Member Interview, Christian Culak
"Currently I'm working on a virtue ethics approach to the issue of whether examples of moral badness should be allowed in machine learning with artificial moral agents. Motivating the side that we should do so is of special interest to me, with a focus on actions that are not wrong yet worse than morally indifferent."
"Since 2013, I've had a DIY solo musical project called Culak. It's mostly metal but aimed at conveying multifaceted experiences, which leads me to incorporate instruments that are unconventional to traditional metal like violin, synthesizer, piano, choir, and organ."
"Every project is composite. Each paper consists of sections, which consist of paragraphs, which consist of arguments, which consist of ideas, which consist of words. Each music album consists of songs, which consist of sections, which consist of melodies or chords, which consist of notes."
"Three things. First, don't put things off. With funding cuts, it's crucial to stay on top of your work and manage your time effectively."
