¿Qué nos hace humanos? Con Juan Luis Arsuaga y Rodrigo Quian

Some believe that what makes us human is the capacity to understand another's mind, to think collectively, and to empathize. This undoubtedly distinguishes us from all other social species. But what factors have been decisive in human evolution to bring us to this point? What can we expect in the immediate future? How is technology shaping evolution? The existence of an entire digital world parallel to the physical one is now a reality, with new tools that allow us to expand our reach. Juan Luis Arsuaga and Rodrigo Quian Quiroga will share their perspectives and knowledge on the impact of techno-scientific progress on humans and, above all, their analyses of the essence of humanity in an environment dominated by algorithms, self-learning machines, and the promise of artificial intelligence, already being touted by some economic sectors, which may well surpass general human intelligence before too long. In today's world, human beings live in a state of constant anxiety. Perhaps the time has come to pause and reflect on the possibility that technological marvels are setting the pace; on humanity's loss of control over its own life; and, fundamentally, on how humans can regain that control and take the reins of their future.
