[ARTICLE] What Building AI Taught Us About Being Human

Good day Qlik Community!

In 1637, Descartes argued that no machine could ever use language to express genuine thought. He was asking the same question we are asking right now.


Four hundred years later, we are finally building the thing everyone has been arguing about. And it turns out we still don't have a good answer to the question he started with: what actually separates us from what we build?


My newest article on Data Voyagers starts with Blade Runner and ends somewhere more uncomfortable. Turing, Searle, Chalmers, Damasio, even Pinocchio. We asked what being human means and realized, partway through writing it, that we don't really know.


Do we risk becoming less human because of AI? Probably worth asking before someone else answers it for us.
