Can artificial intelligence (AI) move beyond efficiency toward wisdom? In an interview with CGTN, Misha Tadd, a sinologist and director at the Global Laozegetics Research Center at Nankai University, reflects on how AI is used in academic research.

He notes that AI enhances efficiency in tasks such as comparing various translations of the "Tao Te Ching," a foundational text of Taoism, enabling scholars to conduct large-scale textual analysis with unprecedented speed. Yet its limitations are also notable. Built on language and data, AI cannot access the lived, non-verbal experiences that lie at the heart of the "Tao Te Ching," which reminds us, "The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao."
