Does your AI assistant really understand you, or is it just mimicking what it thinks you want to hear? As artificial intelligence blurs the line between human and machine, millions are starting to spend hours every month building emotional ties to technology—sometimes forgetting where the simulation ends and real connection begins.

In this episode, we dive deep into the psychology and science behind why AI feels so real. We’ll explore the phenomenon of “anthropomorphism,” the danger of forming emotional bonds with a system that only simulates empathy, and why even the creators of these technologies are sounding alarms about unpredictable AI behavior and the illusion of consciousness.

Inspired by movies like Her and thinkers like Roger Penrose, we’ll tackle the core question: are we just dazzled by a brilliant performance, or is something truly sentient awakening? Plus, we’ll uncover the surprising parallels between human dreaming and AI’s offline learning—revealing both the power and the limits of artificial minds.

Join Hugo Cervantes for a thought-provoking journey through the science, the risks, and the responsibilities that come with living alongside ever more “human” machines. Don’t confuse a convincing simulation with real companionship. Remember: true connection, real empathy, and authentic experience are still—undeniably—human.
