Dan Sullivan and Gord Vickman examine the intersection of emotion, artificial intelligence, and human consciousness—and explain what will always set humans apart. What does it truly mean to be conscious in a world increasingly overwhelmed by technology?
Show Notes:
- The entire human experience of being an individual is consciousness.
- The scientific community still doesn’t understand why humans are conscious or how to measure consciousness.
- By 2026, experts predict 90% of online content could be AI-generated.
- AI lacks the multi-sensory and emotional depth of the human experience. It can never fully replicate human consciousness and interaction.
- Technological advancements often fade as fads because they can’t substitute the richness of human interaction.
- Humans tend to project significance onto new technologies that simply isn’t there.
- Google Images has started delivering AI-generated results.
- AI is a capability, and it becomes increasingly more useful the more you view it through this lens.
- Our ability to advance AI technology is limited by the physical resources this technology consumes.
