Abstract: Harvard Data Science Review’s Founding Editor-in-Chief, Xiao-Li Meng, and Media Feature Editor, Liberty Vittert, interviewed Dr. Steven Pinker, the Johnstone Family Professor in the Department of Psychology at Harvard University and expert on the human mind, about how artificial intelligence is viewed within his fields of study. Dr. Pinker has researched and published several articles and books on language, cognition, and social relations.In this conversation, these two data scientists and an experimental cognitive psychologist theorize about the future societal roles of AI platforms like ChatGPT and discuss whether technology has the ability to be rational and intelligent, as well as how those terms might vary in definition between different fields and between the human brain and AI.
