In the latest episode of Rádio Observador's podcast, neurologist and author Professor Alexandre Castro Caldas delves into the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence (AI) and its intersection with human identity. He emphasizes that, despite AI's advancements, it lacks the human capacity for affection—a sentiment that remains uniquely human.
Castro Caldas asserts, “AI can simulate emotions, but it doesn't experience them.”
This distinction underscores the profound difference between human emotional depth and AI's programmed responses. While AI can process and analyze data at remarkable speeds, it does not possess the subjective experience that characterizes human consciousness.
The podcast offers a thought-provoking exploration of how AI challenges our understanding of intelligence and humanity. Castro Caldas invites listeners to reflect on the irreplaceable qualities that define us as human beings.
