I Taught Rats to Drive. They Taught Me to Enjoy the Ride | Kelly Lambert | TED
What can happy rats teach us about human joy? Behavioral neuroscientist Kelly Lambert describes how her team trained rats to drive tiny cars to earn treats — and noticed something surprising about how effort and anticipation affect the brain. The experiment opens new questions about how reward, agency and “behaviorceuticals” might help build resilience and…

She isn’t backing up her claim with proves at all. Probably nothing what makes us humans human is fundamentally impossible for A.I. in the future. Which is o.k. for me, even exciting. Greetings from a German Artist.

You are an artist and you are in favor of AI? Why? How? Currently AI models are stealing from millions of artists everywhere to inform their work. It’s theft. In fact, my daughter is also an artist. She and her fiance have recently set up a non-profit called Feed the Artists so that they can protect their work. I would strongly suggest that as an artist you should consider protecting your work against AI theft. It’s a huge concern.

@torieadore1 I support universal basic income for everyone. I don’t deny that the idea of intellectual property can serve as a helpful a legal construct in the short term, also to artists, but in the big picture of things, we have always been inspired by an endless mix of what had been created from other artists… culture and the history of art has always worked like that. If an A.I is influenced / informed by my work, so be it. Especially because (and not despite) I am quite self-assured about the uniqueness of my work, I fear not, but welcome the advent of A.I. in the ecosystem.
@ridingboy
March 23, 2026 at 3:20 pm
@pockets4230 Why not, especially taking into account the breathtaking (and still accelerating) pace A.I and robotics are evolving? Robots with A.I. will probably be no less sentient and self aware beings than larger animals in the near future. Some of them will also enjoy dancing while feeling the flow of air on their robot skin. There will be ethics to protect conscious robots.

“we understand things that cannot be quantified”
Why does TED keep bringing on these morons. There’s nothing special about the human brain it’s finding patterns in data and reasoning over its own internal embeddings. AI will be able to do anything the human brain can and better in the future.
@pockets4230
March 23, 2026 at 12:27 pm
What about feelings? Like Ai won’t be able to truly know what it feels like to get tickled or to have fingers chopped off. Aren’t these traits unique to a living organisms nervous system regardless of how much data is acquired?
Not trying to argue as a side point, just discussing.

Your lack of understanding of the English language is more an encumbrance for your computer, than the computer’s software correlation weighting. The computer will highlight regular deviations and divergent error correlations, but the scope is obviously limited in inception, and typically in public reception. Listen, we don’t need screens and spreadsheets anymore than we need a crystal ball. The goal in most endevours with human curiosity is enjoyment. I think we’re done here. 🕹⚾

I disagree partly, if you wear smart glasses, AI can very much read the emotions in the room.
But AI it a glorified copy&paste machine that can only know what it has been trained on. Current machine learning models are entirely incapable of creativity, inventing something new that has never existed. The combination of training data might be interpreted as new output, but there is a distinct lack of innovation.

Actually, no.
The stories you provided list only 1st order analysis by the AI, not 2nd order. AI can do the 2nd order, too, so long as it is asked to do it. AI can detect statistics that show that increased engagement did not increase sales as was the intent for the increased engagement. How did the human identify that it was the wrong audience? Would that data have been available to the AI? I expect so. The proper analysis would have been provided if only the correct prompt was given.

Hmmm, so the person selling AI models tells us we should buy it and use it to be successful and keep in a mind, that a workplace (all workplaces) are safe after further and further training AI models with specific data from yours work?

This talk sounds like what people said before humans learned how to fly. The belief was than we won’t fly in a 1000 years, and suddenly we did.
Same counts for a chess robot, we thought AI could never win from humans. Then we thought AI will never become good at language, and then we have it.
Point being? Make more careful statements.

Everyone thinks about how they can make money from AI and how they can get ahead in the capitalist race. But I don’t. I only think about how I can destroy the entire capitalist system.
And I have wild fantasies about money becoming worthless.

lol, that’s a pretty naive approach. “Being human”, tell this to your capitalist corporate overlord, and watch them laugh so maniacally that you won’t need an AI to understand that you are fired, and are replaced by an API for the latest model.
