Abstract

In the realm of human-computer interaction, AI interactive systems aim to foster connections and understanding among users further, deepening the communication between humans and machines as well as among multiple individuals. However, this paper highlights that current studies have neglected the media and philosophical dimensions, culminating in an interactive system named the 'Humanity Test.' "Humanity" refers to emotions and consciousness, while "test" signifies a critical study of AI technology and an exploration of the distinctions between humanity and technicality. Furthermore, based on a review of related literature, we argue that the focus of AI system research is shifting, with electroencephalogram (EEG) data becoming a trend in AI system integration. Collecting and analyzing experimental data, we identified three design directions: enhancing immersive experiences, creating emotional experiences, and expressing ideas. The experiment results indicate that integrating EEG data into AI systems markedly improves participants' immersive and emotional experiences. This integration not only promotes a deeper understanding of the human-machine boundary but also encourages empathic interactions among users. Based on these findings, EEG data as a medium shows a promising potential to enrich interactive experiences, providing new insights into integrating technology with human emotions.
