Can AI help us solve the crisis of care? Can a chatbot care about a person? What are the limits of technology to find solutions to problems related to care? As part of UConn's Human-Centered AI Initiative, we've brought together a roundtable of scholars from Connecticut to Morocco define “care” within their discipline and discuss what care means when over 30% of AI users turn to their chatbots for therapy or companionship.

UConn Humanities Institute and professor of English, Director Anna Mae Duane leads a conversation about AI and care, featuring Ihsane Hmamouchi, MD PhD, professor of Clinial Epidemiology, Université Internationale de Rabat and Michael Lynch, Board of Trustees Distinguished Professor of Philosophy, University of Connecticut.
