Can AI Teach Us to Be More Human?

View(s):

In a world where Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming industries and automating complex tasks, a surprising frontier has emerged teaching humans how to be more emotionally intelligent.

Traditionally, Emotional Intelligence (EI) the ability to recognise, understand, and manage emotions in oneself and others has been the domain of educators, psychologists, and social interactions. But with the increasing integration of AI in education, workplaces, and even therapy, there’s a growing recognition that AI can do more than analyse data and predict trends. It can help nurture empathy, self-awareness, and social skills.

At the heart of this shift is a new generation of AI tools designed not just to respond to human emotions, but to teachabout them. Educational technologies now leverage natural language processing and affective computing to provide real-time emotional feedback to students. Chatbots equipped with sentiment analysis can guide users through conflict resolution scenarios. Emotion-aware tutoring systems can identify when a learner is frustrated, offering encouragement or adapting the lesson accordingly.

More impressively, some platforms are using AI to help individuals recognise their own emotional blind spots. By analysing journal entries, spoken reflections, or even video responses, these tools can provide subtle cues and constructive feedback. This helps users become more mindful of their tone, emotional triggers, and interpersonal dynamics skills that are often difficult to teach through traditional methods.

Critics argue that teaching emotional intelligence should remain a deeply human task, rooted in face-to-face interaction and lived experience. But proponents counter that AI doesn’t replace human empathy it enhances access to it. In under-resourced schools or high-stress environments, AI-powered tools can provide consistent, personalized support where human attention might be limited.

As we continue to design machines that can understand us better, perhaps the real breakthrough lies in how they can help us understand ourselves.
