In a recent event, more than 40 speakers, including Nobel Prizes, Scientists and Philosophers, discussed the following theme: What makes us human in a world where AI can imitate our way of thinking, learning and even feeling?
Just having as reference advances such as Chatgpt, neurotechnological devices and models and those already known as AI agents, which act autonomously, of course this issue gives for a lot of debate, with the idea of avoiding privacy problems or even loss of work.
Without going any further, A somewhat complicated scenario was discussed and that it really is quite afraid: the possibility that technology will access our thoughts.
It sounds like madness, but there are already devices capable of interpreting brain signals and turning them into actions, and that worries a lot.
Is ¿and neuroscience? The combination that can change everything
The experts agreed that the human being is entering an era where AI and biotechnology are mixed perfectly. Elena Sergeeva, an advisor at Foresight Institute, explained that the brain-compliment interfaces can lead us to compete with future superintelligent IAS, and that in a few years it will be impossible to advance biotechnology without help from artificial intelligence.
And here comes another great question: what happens if these advances are only available to the richest? The possibility of lengthening human life or improving brain skills sounds very good, but this is no doubt that it would lead to inequality again. The expert believes that, as has happened with many other technologies, at first they will be expensive, but over time they will become more accessible, ending, initially, with this problem.
The truth is that this future is already closer than many believe or want to believe. Companies like Neuralink, by Elon Musk, are working on brain implants that would allow us to communicate with devices only with thought.
Awais Ahmed, founder of the Pixxel Space Startup, sees technology as the solution to all human problems. They believe that intelligence can evolve beyond human and predefined limits and that, in the future, age or even death can be transcended. Of course, it sounds really very promising, both for good and for worse.
Is humanity too dependent on AI becoming?
While some think of mixing human body with machines, the truth is that most already live day by day with AI without realizing it. In India, for example, more than 65% of the population uses somehow, more than double the global average.
Artificial intelligence tools are used for everything: from improving photos to writing texts or even relive To deceased beings. There are already applications that allow users to create characters to chat, and even some people have begun to have emotional relationships with this technology.
However, the idea of interact With digital simulations of deceased people, it is creating a lot of discomfort in some, who see this phenomenon as a kind of dark magic of the 21st century or directly consider that it is crazy.
Experts comment that these types of acts cross ethical and cultural limits. However, sociologists from the University of Liverpool consider that the idea of maintaining connections with the dead through texts, images and objects is not something new in the history of mankind.
And what about work?
There is a word that since 2024 is marking the course of technology in companies: agricultural or AI agent. This concept, which until recently sounded like something from another planet, has become a reality that seeks to cause a 180 degree turn in the way companies work, make decisions and carry out their processes.
The big problem is the aforementioned. There are still many who do not understand what it is exactly, how it works and why 2025 have cataloged it as the great year of AI agents.
Going to the point, it is a type of artificial intelligence designed to work autonomously, as if it were an independent agent. Unlike the chatgpt style, which need constant human supervision or work under predefined rules, the AI agent can make decisions, plan strategies and execute tasks without direct intervention.
But, of course, there are still areas where human touch is preferred. When it comes to making complicated ethical decisions, a human with conscience is still preferred. In art and creativity, although AI is doing interesting things, it is still believed that human abilities has that «I don’t know what.» And in issues of empathy and care, such as therapy or care of older people, a warm hand is preferred to cold robotic words.
The truth is that the future, at least closer, is probably a mixture of the best of both worlds. AI can be like an addition, a plus for humans. Only a doctor thinks with the precision of an AI and the empathy of a human being. In many cases, AI can do heavy job, but with a human supervising to make sure everything is going well.
