À propos de ce contenu audio
Why does AI feel authoritative—even when we know it’s just a machine? In this episode of AnthroIntelligence: Culture, Cognition, and Code, I turn to anthropology to explain a quiet but dangerous confusion at the heart of our AI moment. Artificial intelligence works on tokens—units of prediction without belief—but humans increasingly treat its outputs as totems: sources of meaning, trust, and authority.
From students seeking life advice at 2 a.m. to institutions deferring judgment to algorithms, this episode explores how fluency becomes mistaken for wisdom, and prediction for truth. The real risk of AI is not intelligence run amok—but our willingness to surrender interpretation, responsibility, and belief.
