We stand at a pivotal moment in human history.
As artificial intelligence advances, bringing extraordinary labour- and mind-saving benefits, we face a unique opportunity.
We have a one-time chance to grab/seize the ground-breaking opportunities that this technology brings and combine it with the human emotional intelligence so urgently needed to build a more connected and compassionate society.
If we fail to act now, we will end up with not only artificial intelligence, but artificial human connection too.
If we rise to the challenge, we will harness the opportunity to create systems where innovation and human wisdom evolve side by side.
The limits of the human brain
For over 200,000 years our brains have changed little in their ability to regulate emotions and live in community. We remain wired primarily to survive, not thrive, dominated by fight-or-flight reactions and ingrained judgements. These ancient patterns fuel today’s problems: conflict, division, poor mental health and low self-esteem.
Evolving our responses
Now, more than ever, we must learn to calm our automatic reactions, regulate emotions, and expand our capacity for empathy. This evolution allows us to form new habits of constructive connection. It also ensures we harness AI for what it does best – high-speed processing – while reserving human intelligence for what only we can do: nurture relationships, make meaning, and cultivate wisdom.
Transforming the way we speak
By changing how we communicate and connect, we can transform our lives. We can improve our wellbeing, strengthen relationships at home and at work, and conduct ourselves with greater integrity in business, government and international affairs.
The Human Language
I believe it is time to teach the next generation an empathic “human language” and make it a core subject in every school. When children learn emotional and communication skills during key stages of brain development, they embed habits that foster resilience, empathy and healthier relationships. And as these skills grow with them into adulthood, they will transform our workplaces, our leadership and ultimately the systems that shape society.
We are poised at the threshold of possibility:
to evolve not just our technology, but ourselves.
If we align human intelligence with artificial intelligence, we can create a future where compassion and innovation progress hand in hand. The future of humankind depends on what we do next. By bringing the Human Language into partnership with AI, we can ensure that together they become not a source of fear, but a powerful force for good.
