Why Human empathy still matters in the age of AI

A new study finds that people value empathy more when they believe it comes from a human—even if the actual response was generated by AI. Across nine studies involving over 6,000 participants, the research reveals that human-attributed responses are perceived as more supportive, more emotionally resonant, and more caring than identical AI-generated responses.

A new international study led by Prof Anat Perry from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and her PhD student – Matan Rubin, in collaboration with Prof. Amit Goldenberg researchers from Harvard University and Prof. Desmond C. Ong from the University of Texas, finds that people place greater emotional value on empathy they believe comes from humans—even when the exact same response is generated by artificial intelligence.

Empathic Connection in School Counseling: A Sequential Explanatory Mixed Methods Study among Junior High School Counselors in Semarang Regency, Indonesia  

Empathic Connection in School Counseling: A Sequential Explanatory Mixed Methods Study among Junior High School Counselors in Semarang Regency, Indonesia   | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it
This study investigates the development of empathic connection in school counseling practices among junior high school counselors in Semarang Regency, Indonesia. Empathic connection plays a crucial role in fostering supportive relationships between counselors and students.

 

However, little is known about how this dynamic unfolds in real educational settings. Using a sequential explanatory mixed-methods design, this study integrates quantitative data from 30 counselors selected through proportionate stratified random sampling and qualitative data from in-depth interviews and a focus group discussion.

 

The findings reveal that empathic connection is established through active listening, mutual respect, and the counselor’s ability to understand students’ cognitive and emotional states. Disconnection may occur due to factors such as limited time, inadequate facilities, and overlapping responsibilities. In such cases, counselors employ reconnection strategies including asking open-ended questions, rescheduling sessions, and understanding students’ psychosocial backgrounds.

 

Both internal factors (e.g., emotional strain, fear of failure) and external factors (e.g., workload, environment) affect empathy continuity. These findings suggest that empathy in school counseling is not static but requires continuous adaptation and regulation. Institutional support and empathy-focused training are therefore essential to help school counselors maintain effective engagement and promote student well-being.

The Conservative Attack on Empathy

The Conservative Attack on Empathy | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

By Elizabeth Bruenig

 

Five years ago, Elon Musk told Joe Rogan during a podcast taping that “the fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy, the empathy exploit.” By that time, the idea that people in the West are too concerned with the pain of others to adequately advocate for their own best interests was already a well-established conservative idea.

 

Instead of thinking and acting rationally, the theory goes, they’re moved to make emotional decisions that compromise their well-being and that of their home country. In this line of thought, empathetic approaches to politics favor liberal beliefs. An apparent opposition between thought and feeling has long vexed conservatives, leading the right-wing commentator Ben Shapiro to famously declare that “facts don’t care about your feelings.”

Empathetic leadership has ROI for employee retention, report indicates

Empathetic leadership has ROI for employee retention, report indicates | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

“By Carolyn Crist

Empathy isn’t just good for people — it’s good for business,” said Jon Shanahan, president and CEO of Businessolver. “Collectively, companies that fail to operationalize empathy are leaving $180 billion on the table and missing out on a high-ROI lever for long-term growth.”

 

In a survey of U.S. workers, employees who viewed their workplace as unempathetic also reported three times higher toxicity and 1.3 times more mental health issues, which can contribute to lower productivity and absenteeism costs. These workers were also two-times more likely to feel disconnected from their leaders and four-times more likely to feel disconnected from their CEO.

(1) The Power of Leading with Empathy

(1) The Power of Leading with Empathy | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

Empathy redefines how we interact. It reminds us that behind every angry post, every bad decision, every seemingly cold act, there’s likely a story—a wound, a worry, a moment in time where someone wasn’t seen or heard. And that awareness changes everything.

In boardrooms, it sparks collaboration. In families, it saves relationships. In politics, it could mend an unraveling democracy. In conflict zones, it’s often the last fragile thread between survival and collapse.

Movements that have truly changed the world; civil rights, women’s rights, climate action, anti-genocide efforts have all been ignited by the simple but revolutionary act of seeing someone else’s pain and saying, "That’s not okay, and I won’t turn away."

Leading with empathy: Building trust in a conflict zone | IDR

Leading with empathy: Building trust in a conflict zone | IDR | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it
by LOPA SHAH
5 min read
Stepping into a new community, especially in a region shaped by political and social complexities, is never just about the work—it’s about relationships. Trust isn’t built overnight, and it certainly isn’t granted just because individuals and institutions in civil society arrive with good intentions. Trust is earned through presence, persistence, and an openness to learning. I have been working with school leaders, teachers, and students in Kashmir for eight years. During this time, I’ve learned that building trust requires many skills—such as being humble about not knowing people’s lived realities, staying curious, showing deep empathy, understanding the region’s political history, and being open to unlearning as much as learning. At ELICIT, the organisation I founded, we work with teachers in conflict-affected regions to rebuild schools as spaces of healing. But this effort begins with asking ourselves the hardest question of all: What does it take to hold space without controlling it?

Why Empathetic Leadership Matters Now More Than Ever

Why Empathetic Leadership Matters Now More Than Ever | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it
Lead With Empathy And Build Psychological Safety
When leaders lead with empathy, individuals—whether direct reports or peers—feel heard, seen and valued. This creates a climate of psychological safety, where trust and openness flourish. In such environments, team members are more likely to speak up, share ideas and admit mistakes without fear of blame. That openness drives collaboration, creativity and resilience—especially critical in high-pressure or fast-moving settings.

Empathy also helps buffer against today’s constant stressors. In a world shaped by geopolitical upheaval, social division and AI disruption, leaders are not navigating occasional challenges; they are steering through a state of continuous crisis.

Sarah Wilder: Anti-ICE riots and the 'sin of empathy'

Sarah Wilder: Anti-ICE riots and the 'sin of empathy' | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it
Theologian Joe Rigney received a torrent of bad press after claiming in his recent book, “The Sin of Empathy,” that “The so-called virtue of empathy is the greatest rhetorical tool of manipulation in the 21st century.”

“Because love is a real virtue, empathy's power is in posing as selfless care for victims,” Rigney continues. 

Political commentator Allie Beth Stuckey echoed this idea in her 2024 book, “Toxic Empathy,” explaining how the left frames their cause as the only compassionate or kind position one could have, essentially emotionally bullying Americans, especially Christians.

he definition of empathy is: “the ability to understand and share the feelings of others.” 

Except, of course, when it comes to politics.

Recently, Elon Musk, tech titan and the richest person in the world, said, “the fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy”.

Additioanlly, some leaders of the Christian Right have been evangelizing that empathy is a sin.

Have we lost our way when it comes to understanding that there may be a place for empathy in our current political environment and that the failure to understand that basic concept just might be making things worse?

Study Reveals Empathy-Focused Interventions Have the Same Impact as Prescription Medications for Diabetes Control

A recent clinical trial from the founders of Beheld and a research team at the Dell Medical School has demonstrated that science-backed human connection can drive clinically relevant health improvements for health plan members. The study, published in JAMA Network Open, found that consistent, empathy-focused phone calls led to significant improvement in mental health and blood sugar control for adults with diabetes. This research highlights a cost-effective model for managing various conditions, especially for individuals with limited access to traditional mental health and support services.

People Prefer Human Empathy, Even When AI Says the Same Thing | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it
A new study shows that people rate empathic responses as more supportive and emotionally satisfying when they believe they come from a human—even if the same response is AI-generated.

 

The researchers tested whether people perceived empathy differently depending on whether it was labeled as coming from a human or from an AI chatbot. In all cases, the responses were crafted by large language models (LLMs), yet participants consistently rated the “human” responses as more empathic, more supportive, and more emotionally satisfying than the identical “AI” responses.

Trump, Musk, Republicans, and the Empathy Bug

Trump, Musk, Republicans, and the Empathy Bug | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

by Robert Reich
They’ve got it all wrong. Empathy is a necessary precondition for a society.

Without empathy, we’d be living in a social Darwinist jungle animated only by selfish individuals pursuing selfish needs, like Musk and Trump.

If everyone behaved like Musk and Trump, we’d have to assume everyone else was out to exploit us if they could. Much of our time and attention would be devoted to outwitting or protecting ourselves from other Musks and Trumps.

Without a shared sense of empathy and responsibility, we would have to assume that everyone — including legislators, judges, regulators, and police — was acting selfishly, making and enforcing laws for their own benefit.

The Anti-Empathy Playbook. Recognize the religious right’s… | by Philosophy Publics 

Recognize the religious right’s strategies for creating a permission structure to dehumanize vulnerable populations in a cultural war on empathy that threatens our multicultural, multiracial democracy.

 

A deliberate and strategic effort to redefine and attack empathy has been underway for nearly twenty years. What might initially appear to be isolated critiques of empathy, upon closer examination reveals itself as a coordinated campaign on two fronts: right-wing evangelical and Christian nationalist sects, and libertarian, neo-Rationalist circles. This essay is about the first set of anti-empathy crusaders.

I am not so much concerned with unpacking the anti-empathy arguments and offering a counter-critique, though I do some of that. But my main goal is to reveal the playbook being used to transform empathy, from a widely valued human capacity, into something portrayed as dangerous, manipulative, and morally suspect. The hope is that once you see how this works, you will begin to recognize the tactics by which cultural warfare is being waged by these radical ideologies against our democracy.

Empathy is a fundamental part of building meaningful connections. But for some people, developing it may be a challenge. Learn what causes a lack of empathy and how to gain more.

 

Being critical and judgmental

People who have low empathy may excessively criticize other people for experiencing or expressing emotions in certain scenarios.

Someone with a lack of empathy may also blame the person for what they’re experiencing. For example, they may say things like, “If you didn’t do those things, you wouldn’t be in trouble now.”

Empathy: How to Feel and Respond to the Emotions of Others

Empathy: How to Feel and Respond to the Emotions of Others | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it
The different components of empathy
Researchers tend to recognize at least two components of empathy: affective and cognitive.

Affective (or emotional) empathy is the ability to feel what others are feeling. If your spouse is stressed and sad, you might mirror those emotions. If a friend is jovial and upbeat, you might find yourself grinning as their happiness seems contagious.

Cognitive empathy is the ability to recognize and understand another person’s mental state. It gives you insight into the other person’s perspective and emotions. If you recognize that your spouse is angry, you can predict that your joke isn’t going to land well. If you can tell that your friend is feeling helpless, you won’t be surprised by their sudden outburst.

View of Listening Across Differences

Deliberative mini-publics, created through sortition and stratified sampling, reflect the broader diversity of the larger whole. While these mini-publics are usually facilitated, the lived experience of facilitators in this role has seldom been explored. Facilitators’ accounts of the joys and challenges of facilitating mini-publics in the state of Vorarlberg, Austria illuminate the nuances of embodying active listening and interpersonal empathy in this context, with implications for both deliberative theory and practice.

Why Empathy Still Drives Innovation, Growth, and Business Relevance | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

By Dev Patnaik,

Empathy, when practiced with intention, still delivers results. It leads to better products, stronger teams, deeper loyalty, and faster adaptation. It makes companies more resilient because it keeps them in touch with reality. It helps them stay relevant because they sense change sooner than others. But maybe more importantly, it keeps them decent. And in this moment, decency is a competitive advantage.

Though Musk is wrong almost 100 percent of the time, he is right about one thing: empathy can be taken advantage of, and used a weapon. However, he underestimates its strength and ability to create permanent and positive change.

In a cultural landscape often confusing emotional sensitivity with fragility, a growing body of research suggests empathy is not only a powerful social tool – but one of the strongest human traits. Recent studies from psychology, neuroscience and leadership development reveal empathy – when understood and practiced with intention – fuels resilience, effective leadership and healthier relationships with those around us.

How Kids Are Learning Empathy at School

How Kids Are Learning Empathy at School | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it
The school was using resources from EmpathyLab, a U.K. organization that aims “to raise an empathy-educated generation” through the power of reading. Independent research has shown that this is one of the best ways to understand other people’s perspectives. 

Stories allow us to “walk around” the character, and to consider their viewpoint in a safe way, says Imogen Bond, managing director at EmpathyLab: “We might think of reading as something that you do in isolation … actually, it’s something that really connects us to other people.” 

EmpathyLab is just one of a number of initiatives built on the premise that empathy is not so much a trait one is born with, but rather a muscle that can be trained. Many educators and experts see such training as vital — for individuals and for wider society.

Can Love and Empathy Be Bad?

Can Love and Empathy Be Bad? | Empathy Movement Magazine | Scoop.it

Love and emphathy are always good.
Love and empathy shouldn't be blamed for a poor outcome.
We have never needed love and empathy more than we do today.

A recent claim that empathy is evil garnered a lot of public attention. Empathy, so the assertion goes, is the devil in disguise, luring people into foolish actions and sentiments. Some described empathy as “suicidal” or as the “fundamental weakness of Western societies”. Empathy is to blame for “wasteful” social programs and “lax” immigration policies. Most did not discriminate against any empathy but specifically disparaged “untethered” empathy.
