How To Avoid Losing Our Identity While Collaborating With AI

Following on our previous post ‘How We Need to Learn to Work with AI‘, there are also interesting points of view of how AI may lead to losing our identity, such as this article ‘Would You Survive a Merger with AI?

This article is focused on actual hybridation between humans and machine (a physical merger of sorts) but takes it at the philosophical level. It then shows that we can’t at the same time merge with AI, or replicate ourselves, without losing our identity.

There are thus some limits (luckily, quite remote and still very much science-fiction) beyond which our joint working with AI may lead to losing our identity, or being unclear about it.

In the short term, in order to benefit from AI without losing our identity, it may be a good idea to make sure we keep some of our identity to ourselves and do not share everything with AI, however enticing this may look!
