Artificial intelligence (AI) has been a cornerstone of fascination for years, permeating our collective consciousness through science fiction and real-world advancements like GPT-4 and Neuralink. As we persistently tread the frontier of AI capabilities, it’s vital to recognise that understanding our own humanity serves as the foundational step in the AI journey.
As humans, we possess the distinctive capacity to comprehend and interpret our emotions and experiences. We are able to feel a spectrum of emotions from elation to sorrow, and empathise with the struggles of being impaired or mobility-challenged. It is us, with our profound understanding of these concepts, who are able to design and create AI systems that mirror this understanding.
We are not mere architects of technology and machinery; we are the bedrock upon which AI will be built. It is us who imbue AI with emotional, semantic, and purposeful understanding. We are the inception point, the benchmark, the first step in the odyssey of artificial intelligence.
As we propel further into the exploration and development of AI, we must remain cognizant of our role: we are not solely fabricating machines, but laying the groundwork for the future of AI. We are the prime movers in the evolution of artificial intelligence, and bear the responsibility of steering its progression in a manner that is ethical and conscientious.
