Exploring Our Humanity Through Generative AI
Generative Articial Intelligence (AI) is becoming part of the world in which people are formed. Through stories, we explore how AI can help us reflect on what it means to be human, while reminding us that empathy, relationships and walking alongside one another remain deeply human practices
After spending years in AI research exploring how machines imitate aspects of human behaviour, Leong spent the second half of his career working in health and human services. The intersection of these two worlds continues to shape Lifespan Education’s exploration of technology and human formation.
Our goal is to encourage thoughtful participation in a world increasingly shaped by AI, helping both creators and users reflect on how these technologies influence the people we become.
