- 11:37La simplicité de l'homme face à la machine | Raphael Enthoven | TEDxPSBEn quoi l’être humain est-il inaccessible à l’Intelligence artificielle ? Pourquoi peut-on dire que l’humanité est d’une étoffe qu’aucune machine ne synthétise ? Et que l’homme est un casse-tête pour la machine ? Et si ce qui nous sépare de la machine n’était pas notre complexité, mais notre simplicité ? D’où nous vient le sentiment que nous sommes sur le point d’être remplacés par les machines ? Pourquoi un tel sentiment se vit-il comme la signature du XXI siècle alors que, de Pygmalion à l’IA en passant par le Golem, Frankenstein, Blade Runner, Matrix ou Pinocchio, il traverse l’histoire de l’humanité ? Raphaël Enthoven is a renowned philosopher, writer, and public intellectual, celebrated for his thought-provoking insights and ability to make complex ideas accessible. Author of numerous works, including his latest book, L'Esprit artificiel, he explores the intersections of philosophy, technology, and society. Known for his eloquence and depth, Raphaël brings a unique and critical perspective to the challenges and promises of the future.
