Can a machine ever truly feel, or is there something irreplaceable about being alive?

As AI advances at a staggering rate, we're forced to confront a fundamental question: What actually separates human consciousness from code?

In a recent episode of the StreetSmart Wisdom Podcast, host Steve Stein and MIT Professor Sherry Turkle pointed straight to the heart of this shift:

"I really feel we're having this conversation because humanity is at a kind of critical juncture... If sentience could happen to us and we're just atoms, why can't it happen in the machines?"

Sherry’s response cuts right to the essence of our shared humanity:

"I think that's where the issue of the body and the life cycle comes in."

Without a physical body, a life cycle, or mortality, can a machine ever offer true empathy or are we mistaking simulated intimacy for genuine human connection?

Who Has Standing? Reclaiming Our Human Foundation

In the legal world, "standing" determines who has the right to be heard. But in an age where AI chatbots mimic therapists, friends, and lovers, an urgent question arises: Who has standing to discuss the human heart?

In a compelling conversation, Sherry Turkle and Jon Kabat-Zinn reframed this concept to defend what makes us fundamentally human:

“We have standing by virtue of being alive. That's the most important standing. Why don't we honor that? Why don't we put a deep foundation... where we honor that being human is a certain kind of standing and it has a domain of infinite emotion?”

A machine can generate language, but it doesn't live, feel, or possess the infinite emotion that comes with being alive. Machines do not have standing in the landscape of human care.

If you care about preserving genuine human empathy in a world increasingly dominated by artificial connection, join us for a landmark live event in New York City!

New York Times bestselling authors Sherry Turkle (Artificial Intimacy) and mindfulness pioneer Jon Kabat-Zinn gather with host Steve Stein for an unforgettable evening exploring technology, mindfulness, and the human soul.

Date: October 14, 2026 | 7:00 PM EDT

When we talk about living an "analog" life, we aren't just talking about turning off our devices. We're talking about honoring the real, lived experience of being human.

During a recent podcast dialogue, MIT Professor Sherry Turkle and host Steve Stein beautifully unpacked what is truly at stake in our digital age:

“What's at stake in its being analog is that people live in bodies and have to develop... little by little, they go through experiences... when I'm using the word analog, it's a shorthand... it's got a fabric to it, a tapestry.”

Living in a physical body, growing through shared human challenges, and experiencing the natural arc of the human lifecycle build a rich emotional fabric that no algorithm or machine can ever replicate.

As AI chatbots move deeper into our daily lives, how do we protect the sacred tapestry of real human connection?

Pretend Empathy vs. Real Human Connection

As technology moves into every corner of our daily lives at an unimaginable speed, we are facing a subtle yet profound loss: the blurring line between genuine care and synthetic comfort.

During a recent conversation, MIT Professor Sherry Turkle pointed directly to the illusion tech developers are building and why we must stand up for what makes us human:

"I prefer to think of what we've created not as sentience and empathy... but rather, it's pretend sentience, pretend empathy. So I think that we have to fight back for these human qualities."

When machines offer "pretend empathy" that asks nothing of us in return, we risk trading away the messy, beautiful, and deeply rewarding experience of truly being there for one another.

If you've felt a growing concern for the way screens and AI are shaping our relationships, our families, and our children's futures, you are not alone.

Join us for a deeply moving, live in-person dialogue in New York City with New York Times bestselling authors Sherry Turkle (Artificial Intimacy) and mindfulness pioneer Jon Kabat-Zinn, hosted by Steve Stein. Together, they will explore how we can reclaim real empathy and presence in a world dominated by code.
