Human Beings and Relationships in the Age of AI: a (not only) Neuroscientific Perspective
Speech
The brain is a resonant organism — sensitive, plastic, profoundly human. More than ever, it is worth asking what truly defines a human being. Artificial intelligence impresses with speed and computational power, yet it knows neither consciousness nor need, neither pain nor shame. It has no self, no attachment, no history. The human brain, however, empathizes; it struggles to create meaning. And precisely because we are creating machines that appear increasingly human-like, we should not lose sight of the question of what it actually means to be human — despite the extraordinary and ever-growing capabilities of AI. Not least with regard to the way we relate to one another.
