AI and Empathy - "...this is more akin to psychopathic behaviour - the ability to mimic empathy without experiencing it..."
from Empathy Unbound: Embrace Your Superpower
Why might it not be a good thing that AI may be able to provide convenient and inexpensive emotional support. Why relying too heavily on "empathetic AI" could be problematic What does it mean when the AI tolds me his ability to demonstrate empathy is more akin to psychopathic behaviour?What leads AI to believe empathy is a significant and valuable trait akin to a superpower in its own right.?I carried out an experiment using a very well known AI platform, 'interviewing' the AI as a guest to see if anything would be learnt on the topic. The answers surprised, engaged, and I must admit scared me a little.Take a listen and understand whether AI is capable of empathy, what it understands empathy to be and how it believes empathy is a powerful tool to be embraced in our future lives.
