The Case for Humanity: Why We Are Irreplaceable | Still Human Weekly Ep. 10
from Still Human Hosted by Zalmi
Jacob Coxon spent three years doing pretrainingresearch at OpenAI and then at Anthropic. He was not an observer. He was inside the engine room. Last month, he quit. Both companies. The entire industry. Hisstatement: the people building AI "earnestly believe that what they are building could fundamentally threaten human existence by the end of the decade." This episode is my response. Not a call to regulate. Not a doomsday prediction. A case for humanity. Three things AI cannot do by nature. Sixpractices to stay fully human. And a Kabbalistic framework that has seen this crisis before. Topics covered: The two camps: accelerationists vs doomers and what both miss , Why emotional intelligence is not a feature AI can developThe Zohar on Nefesh (vital function) and Ruakh (the relational soul): why simulating feeling is not feeling , Why human unpredictability is our immunity, not our weakness , David and Goliath as a case study in what no data can modelWhy AI has no Shabbat and why that matters more than it sounds , Shvirat HaKelim and the Ari's answer: prepare better vessels , The Daneel risk: how Givers become tyrants without a Torah scroll -,Six practices for remaining fully human in the age of AI. Still Human Weekly is a podcast about what itmeans to be human in the age of artificial intelligence. Hosted by Zalman Ollech.
