I want to share one of my favorite chapters of my new ebook entitled “The Terminator paradox — How neuroscience can help us understand empathy and the fear of Artificial Intelligence,” co-written with my dear friend and Ph.D. in Neuroscience Mariana Verzaro.

The book is the results of several engaging conversations about concepts and possible approaches to building Empathy in AI.

It is a fascinating thought leadership exercise with some interesting technological, social and philosophical views regarding Artificial Intelligence from the neuroscientific point of view.

Enjoy the reading!

Chapter 4 — Understanding Empathy

I have been in touch with several researchers and leaders in AI for a long time discussing about how important empathy is to its overall impact and evolution.

Technologists and researchers have contributed to these conversations about how people view, interact with, and perceive others and interpret the world, including voice recognition, adaptive platforms, and dynamic technologies.
