ProjectUs.ai – AI to Become the Best Versions of Ourselves

Description:

While AI has the potential to make us faster, more productive, and better equipped to tackle the world’s biggest problems, it can also pose an existential threat to humanity. At ProjectUs.ai, we believe the best way of preparing for a world of ubiquitous AI, is by using artificial intelligence to enhance, rather than replace, our human intelligence. Developed at the MIT Media Lab, ProjectUs is an AI system that helps humans enhance a broad set of skills, which are key to living and thriving alongside AI, including communication, self-awareness, empathy, critical thinking, and collaboration.

Takeaways

  1. We should stop worrying about AI being better, and start focusing on how AI can make us better
  2. By analyzing our interactions (use of words, body language, etc.) and providing personalized feedback, AI can help build emotional intelligence skills
  3. By leading the democratization of AI-powered human development, we are fostering a peaceful coexistence, among humans and with AI
