Hi, I’m Evan Arnet

I am a writer and philosopher. My doctoral background is in history and philosophy of science where I worked on the long-term development of scientific methodology. Major components of my research background include the intersection of science and ethics,  animal learning and consciousness, and 20th-century genetics. Increasingly, I focus on issues in AI and labor ethics. 

As a public philosopher and historian, I have made digital exhibits, designed public-facing websites, and communicated scientific findings. Since the beginning of 2022, I have written for the Prindle Institute for Ethic’s Prindle Post, analyzing current events with an eye to the underlying ethics. Since summer 2023, I have worked in proposal development, first at Indiana University and now freelance. Recently, I have taken my interests in science, ethics, labor, and artificial intelligence into the realm of short fiction and have several stories out for review.
