Can A.I. Help Us Understand Babies?

from Philosophy Talk Hosted by Philosophy Talk

Artificial intelligence is everywhere in our day-to-day lives and our interactions with the world. And it’s made impressive progress at a variety of visual, linguistic, and reasoning tasks.

Or are humans fundamentally different from machines? Josh and Ray decode the babble with Michael Frank, Professor of Human Biology at Stanford University and Director of the Language & Cognition Lab.
