In this chapter, I reflect on contemporary entanglements between artificial intelligence and the neurosciences by tracing the development of Google's recent DeepMind algorithms back to their roots in neuroscientific studies of episodic memory and ima...
Mature moral judgments rely both on a perpetrator's intent to cause harm, and also on the actual harm caused-even when unintended. Much prior research asks how intent information is represented neurally, but little asks how even unintended harms infl...
This study provides the first physiological evidence of humans' ability to empathize with robot pain and highlights the difference in empathy for humans and robots. We performed electroencephalography in 15 healthy adults who observed either human- o...
Patient-Centered Care (PCC) is currently recognized as the gold standard for the doctor-patient relationship, and numerous studies associate it with the improvement of various outcomes. However, the advent of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies...

OBJECTIVE: This study applied a machine-learning-based skill assessment system to investigate the association between supportive counseling skills (empathy, open questions, and reflections) and treatment outcomes. We hypothesized that higher empathy ...
IMPORTANCE: Artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots pose the opportunity to draft template responses to patient questions. However, the ability of chatbots to generate responses based on domain-specific knowledge of cancer remains to be tested.

Humanoid robots have been designed to look more and more like humans to meet social demands. How do people empathize humanoid robots who look the same as but are essentially different from humans? We addressed this issue by examining subjective feeli...
This article proposes a method for an artificial agent to behave in a social manner. Although defining proper social behavior is difficult because it differs from situation to situation, the agent following the proposed method adaptively behaves appr...

OBJECTIVE: To provide a scoping review of studies on empathy recognition in text using natural language processing (NLP) that can inform an approach to identifying physician empathic communication over patient portal messages.
INTRODUCTION: The text examines the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) in the context of rare diseases, exploring how patients turn to AI resources for health information, especially in situations where doctor-patient communication is limited. Th...
