This chapter explores the intricate relationship between love and artificial intelligence (AI) from an interdisciplinary and theoretical perspective. It analyzes the significance of love amid current technological developments, focusing on AI’s potential and limits in simulating this human experience. From a neuroscientific standpoint, it examines how love’s neurochemistry can be modeled using AI. The technological perspective sheds light on the development of emotionally intelligent systems and their role in interpersonal relationships, including the limitations of machine empathy. Psychological and cultural perspectives are integrated to investigate both individual and societal perceptions of love. This includes an exploration of how AI challenges and transforms our notions of intimacy, attachment, and closeness, as well as how narratives in art and media reflect these changes. The chapter concludes with an interdisciplinary synthesis, demonstrating that while AI can serve as a tool for analyzing and simulating love, it cannot capture the essence of this profoundly human phenomenon. Rather than offering definitive answers, the chapter contributes to ongoing discussions about the role of AI in emotional and social contexts.

摘要

This chapter explores the intricate relationship between love and artificial intelligence (AI) from an interdisciplinary and theoretical perspective. It analyzes the significance of love amid current technological developments, focusing on AI’s potential and limits in simulating this human experience. From a neuroscientific standpoint, it examines how love’s neurochemistry can be modeled using AI. The technological perspective sheds light on the development of emotionally intelligent systems and their role in interpersonal relationships, including the limitations of machine empathy. Psychological and cultural perspectives are integrated to investigate both individual and societal perceptions of love. This includes an exploration of how AI challenges and transforms our notions of intimacy, attachment, and closeness, as well as how narratives in art and media reflect these changes. The chapter concludes with an interdisciplinary synthesis, demonstrating that while AI can serve as a tool for analyzing and simulating love, it cannot capture the essence of this profoundly human phenomenon. Rather than offering definitive answers, the chapter contributes to ongoing discussions about the role of AI in emotional and social contexts.
