Rosario Corvalán argues that artificial intelligence doesn’t render the humanities obsolete, but rather necessitates a re-evaluation of their purpose. She challenges the notion that fields like philosophy, history, and literature must justify their existence based solely on workforce skills. Corvalán asserts their value extends beyond simply cultivating critical thinking abilities. With the increasing prevalence of AI, she believes the humanities retain a crucial role in prompting reflection on fundamental questions regarding the human condition. This, she contends, is a task algorithms are incapable of fulfilling. The core value of humanities lies in exploring what it means to be human, a realm beyond the scope of artificial intelligence. Ultimately, the humanities offer a critical perspective on technology itself.
