John Vervaeke: Artificial Intelligence, The Meaning Crisis, & The Future of Humanity.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly changing the world around us. From self-driving cars to facial recognition software, AI is becoming more and more ubiquitous. But what are the risks and opportunities of this new technology?
In this episode of the podcast, I’m joined by John Vervaeke, a PhD is an award-winning associate professor at the University of Toronto in the departments of psychology, cognitive science and Buddhist psychology.
Professor Vervaeke has been teaching courses on Buddhism and Cognitive Science in the Buddhism, Psychology, and Mental Health program for 15 years. He has authored and presented two YouTube series, “Awakening from the Meaning Crisis“ and “After Socrates.“
In this episode we discuss:
• Will AI challenge what it means to be human?
• How will AI fuel the meaning crisis?
• How to use AI to our advantage.
and more!
