What AI Reveals About Being Human

This isn't a course about which button to click.

Most AI courses teach you prompts, shortcuts, and tool comparisons. This one asks a different question: what does it actually mean to live alongside something that can produce human language — without any of the lived experience behind it?

 

We're four years into a world with tools like ChatGPT. That's not very long. We haven't yet seen the full shape of what it means to have non-human entities woven into how we write, decide, and communicate. This course is a chance to slow down and think clearly about that shift, before it becomes invisible.

A machine can describe fire. It has never been burned.

AI systems generate language by predicting which words statistically follow other words. The word "fire" appears near "hospital" and "burned" often enough that an AI can tell you fire is dangerous.

But knowing that pattern is not the same as knowing the feeling — the searing, immediate, bodily understanding that comes from actually touching a flame.

The gap between statistical association and lived experience sits at the center of what this course explores. 

Led by AI Researchers

This course is created and taught by two cognitive scientists who have published research on how humans interact with AI technologies. Our goal is to help you think critically about AI that stays useful no matter which tools come and go.
