Existe-t-il un espace sûr pour l'humain après l'IA ? | Rohan D'Souza | TEDxKyoto University

Dans cette conférence TEDxKyoto University, Rohan D'Souza, professeur à la Graduate School of Asian and African Area Studies de l'université de Kyoto, s'interroge sur la place de la pensée humaine alors que l'intelligence artificielle prend en charge la recherche d'informations, le raisonnement et les décisions. Il décrit l'émergence d'une société post-lettrée, où l'attention devient une marchandise et où le défilement remplace la lecture approfondie. L'exposé examine la conscience de soi, l'émotion, l'expérience vécue et la création de sens. Il interroge enfin le rôle des universités comme lieux de libre réflexion et de débat.

• Passage vers une société post-lettrée où le défilement remplace la lecture approfondie
• Conscience de soi, émotion et expérience vécue comme traits humains
• Préserver l'autonomie humaine face à l'IA

We are entering a post-literate society where attention has become a commodity, scrolling is replacing deep reading, and even education risks becoming a form of infotainment. At the same time, artificial intelligence is making it increasingly easy to outsource not only information gathering, but also reasoning and decision-making. What, then, distinguishes human thought from machine intelligence? This talk explores self-awareness, emotion, lived experience, and our ability to create meaning and make independent choices. It also reconsiders the role of universities as places where people can think freely, debate, and pursue knowledge beyond efficiency or productivity. As AI becomes more deeply embedded in our lives, this talk asks how we can preserve human agency and our capacity to think for ourselves. Ultimately, it invites us to reconsider a fundamental question: what does it mean to remain human in the age of AI? Japanese Translation: 私たちは今、注意そのものが商品となり、深く読むことが「スクロールすること」に置き換わる、いわば「ポスト・リテラシー社会」に入りつつある。さらに、人工知能の発達によって、情報収集だけでなく、思考や判断までも外部に委ねることが容易になっている。 では、人間の思考と人工知能を分けるものは何なのだろうか。本講演では、自己認識、感情、経験、意味を生み出す力、そして自ら選択する力について考える。また、効率や生産性だけを追求するのではなく、自由に考え、議論し、知を追求する場としての大学の役割についても捉え直す。 AIが私たちの生活に深く入り込む今、人間が自ら考え、行動する力をどのように守ることができるのか。そして、AI時代に「人間である」とは何を意味するのかを問いかける。 A professor at Kyoto University's Graduate School of Asian and African Area Studies since 2015.
