Love is a declaration of dependence | Jan Drost | TEDxMaastricht

Love is a topic that concerns us all. Jan Drost will give you insight into
the future of love in light of robotics and AI. [Filmed at TEDxMaastricht]

Jan Drost is a philosopher, writer and a teacher at the Hogeschool van
Amsterdam and a contributor to the ‘School of Life’ initiative. By
looking at philosophers such as Plato, Schopenhauer and Nietzsche, he
meticulously dissects our thinking about love and happiness. In his books
'Het romantisch misverstand' (The Romantic Misconception) and 'Denken
helpt' (Thinking Helps) and his talks, no aspect is spared: sex, power,
fear, jealousy, infidelity, loyalty and romantic misconceptions!

Many people see love as profoundly human, something that is intra-human by
nature. In an era of accelerated progress in Artificial Intelligence (AI)
and robotics, more and more scientists are concerned about the impact this
development can have on our humanity. What will the impact of AI be on
love now that we’re creating robots that are astonishingly like humans?
