Are We Teaching AI to Care—or Just to Sound Like It? with Dr. Nick Haber

What happens when the tools we build to understand us start to change what it means to be human?In this episode of Neural Compass, Stanford’s Dr. Nick Haber—computer scientist, educator, and co-founder of the Autism Glass Project—joins Jimini’s Mark Jacobstein to explore how AI is entering some of the most human spaces: learning, emotion, and mental health.From wearable devices that help children with autism recognize emotion to new research on large language models in therapy, Dr. Haber examines both the promise and the peril of AI that seems to “care.”They cover:- How wearable AI helped children with autism connect through emotion recognition- Why today’s chatbots still miss critical signs of distress—and what that reveals about human empathy- How AI might train, not replace, the next generation of therapists- Why the line between assistive and autonomous AI may define the future of careLearn more: jiminihealth.com
