45 min

Speaker: John Albin

Drupal’s motto has long been “Come for the code. Stay for the community.” If our code comes from smart people and our community comes from kind people, we could rephrase our motto as “Come for the intelligence. Stay for the emotions.”
In this time where Artificial Intelligence is dominating discussions in the tech world, it’s important to look at what is motivating us. What are our emotions driving us to do?
And since we are all tremendous nerds, let’s go all the way back… to the evolution of emotions. And then forward to modern advances in brain science.
During the last 80 years, Brain Science, Psychology and Artificial Intelligence have been linked in surprising ways. Understanding how our brains work has revolutionized both AI and psychology.
Let’s take a sweeping look at our emotional intelligence and our artificial intelligence. With a better understanding of those topics, I hope we can improve ourselves… and our code.
