DESCRIPTION:AI models are seemingly everywhere these days\, feeling more h
 uman than ever before. However\, we should be careful not to humanize thos
 e models\, as it gives them powers they do not possess and obscures the fl
 aws they do have. In this talk\, I will look at examples where models seem
  to know\, understand\, feel\, create\, judge\, or move like humans and wh
 y it is still wrong to anthropomorphize them. At the same time\, we will h
 ave to find a way to inform AI about what it means to be human if we want 
 to prevent harm and improve their capabilities. For that\, we must look ac
 ross disciplinary boundaries and build a (social) theory of AI.
