Show notes

Are we losing something with technology? There are two sides to every argument, including this one. Dr. Sherry Turkle is of the belief that there's enough mounting scientific evidence that points toward loss of empathy and self knowledge due to increasing interaction with machines. In this episode, we discuss Dr. Turkle's research and her subtle fears for the future, particularly of those about machines that replicate emotions or conversation but that don't actually feel anything - is the ability to form real connections between two beings at risk of being lost?
