2Max Olson1yI guess it depends on the definition of each of these.
Empathy: No matter how advanced AI gets (true AGI or whatever) there will always
be room for human <-> human empathy. AI will never truly have the same
experiences as humans. It can pretend or fake like it does -- and I think this
could still be useful in many situations, like customer support or low-level
therapy. It just wont be totally replaced by it.
Collaboration: Probably the weakest of the 3. Of course any AI can collaborate,
and currently they already do. I still believe that for the near future human
<-> human collaboration will be needed -- i.e. we will want a "human in the
loop" for some time.
Creativity: Still very much needed for the foreseeable future. LLMs, image
generators, etc. very much do express creativity by combining ideas in latent
space to things that are truly novel. But human brains still think ("explore
possibility space") differently, and are therefore valuable. It's the same
reason I believe having diverse intelligences (human, AI, other species, alien)
is valuable. Also helps to push the boundaries of possibility space in a way
that these models may have difficulty.
I'm curious your (or others) take on these though.
Curious why you think these can't be replaced by AI creativity, empathy, and collaboration.
