Chatbot Thinking
How Language (Does Not) Help Us Think
Hörsaal 1
Universitätsring 1, 1010 Wien
Vortrag
Teaser:
New language-based technologies are on the verge to deeply change the way how we converse with each other and potentially with ourselves. In my talk I will explain the varieties and significance of the conversations we silently have with ourselves and how these may influence our thoughts, actions and feelings. I will expand on potential benefits of inner speech for self-control and emotion regulation, for perception, problem solving and for generating new ideas. Yet, our internal chatbot does not come without risks and can also cause emotional trouble and lead us astray. I will argue that inner speech is comparable to overt social speech in many respects and that we can foster both our emotional well-being and our cognitive capacities if we take good care of both.
