Description
-
Neuroscientist Dr. Heather Berlin explains why AI will never be conscious in its current form. AI will eventually be able to DO much of what we can do, but it will never BE what we can be. But as we merge with AI via neural implants, when do we stop being human?
Dr. Heather Berlin is a neuroscientist, a clinical psychologist, and an associate clinical professor of psychiatry and neuroscience at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in NY. She explores the neural basis of impulsive and compulsive psychiatric and neurological disorders with the goal of developing novel treatments. She is also interested in the brain basis of consciousness, dynamic unconscious processes, and creativity.
Heather hosts the Nova series "Your Brain" on PBS, where she explores the latest research on the neural basis of consciousness. She previously hosted "Science Goes to the Movies" on PBS and Discovery Channel's "Superhuman Showdown." She makes regular appearances on "Startalk" with Neil DeGrasse Tyson, and has appeared on the BBC, History Channel, Netflix, National Geographic, and TED. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/ted
