SUMMARY:Being Human
DESCRIPTION:Location: First Church - Sanctuary (66 Marlborough St\, Bosto
 n\, MA). Ends 3:00 PM. Two exceptional thinkers address the urgent issue
  of what it means to be human in an age of AI. From Sherry Turkle —our f
 oremost chronicler of digital culture and human psychology—comes an inst
 ant touchstone: Artificial Intimacy: Who We Become When We Talk to Machi
 nes. Lauded by Jonathan Haidt\, Esther Perel\, Vivek Murthy\, and more\,
  Turkle’s book examines how our growing dependence on artificial intimac
 y erodes our ability to connect and care deeply for each other. Joining 
 her will be Eric C. So\, whose “clear-eyed\, nuanced\, and highly access
 ible” (PW\, starred) new book\, The Collision: What AI Does to Us\, offe
 rs an indispensable guide to using AI as a tool—not as a replacement for
  human intelligence\, empathy\, and creativity. Guiding this vital conve
 rsation will be Moira Weigel\, whose research centers on the history and
  social life of communication technology. This session is sponsored by t
 he Lyric Stage Boston. Bookseller: Trident Booksellers & Cafe\n\nMore in
