When machines master empathy, do humans forget how to feel?

In this episode of Your AI Injection, Deep Dhillon chats with Niv Sundaram of Machani Robotics to explore RIA, the humanoid companion designed to cultivate personalized, empathetic, meaningful conversations with patients. With 32 facial actuators, multimodal sensors, and therapy-trained LLMs, RIA is capable of reading subtle facial expressions and responds accordingly, helping alleviate the burnout experienced by overworked caregivers.

Deep and Niv also dive into the broader ethical implications of AI companions. If these machines excel at providing unconditional, positive support, will future generations lose the capacity for the challenging (but essential) work of human relationships?
