Big Questions About the Human Being - Episode 3 | What Does it Mean to be Human? Reflections on Neuroscience, Artificial Intelligence and the Soul.
In this third episode of Big Questions About the Human Being: Bioscience and Islam in Dialogue, Dr. Aasim Padela brings together leading scientists, philosophers, educators, and theologians to explore the profoundest of questions - What Does it Mean to be Human?
From covering breaking neuroscience discoveries to debates around artificial intelligence and to the elusive concept of the soul, we will dive deep into notions that define our humanity and being.
Key themes in this episode:
● Diverse perspectives on what defines our humanity
● Insights from neuroscience, AI, and philosophy
● The role of the soul in understanding human nature
● How values, meaning, and consciousness set us apart
● A practical case study connecting theory to real life
Join us for a journey that may leave you with more questions than answers — but ones worth asking. As always, we will ground the discussion with a real-world clinical case to make these big ideas tangible.
