About this listen
What would it mean to design AI for human flourishing? In the final episode of this season of “Making a Mind,” Cognitive scientist Dr. Danielle Perszyk sits down with Dr. Pat Pataranutaporn, Assistant Professor at the MIT Media Lab and founder of the Cyborg Psychology group, to explore how we move beyond optimizing models—and toward optimizing human development.
They discuss intelligence augmentation (IA) versus artificial intelligence (AI), why benchmarking model capability isn’t enough, and how we might instead measure AI by its impact on curiosity, learning, and collective well-being. From interdisciplinary meta-science to the risks of dehumanizing people while humanizing machines, they examine how AI can help us get smarter at getting smarter—without undermining what makes us human.
