Too Long; Didn't Read
Having high emotional intelligence (EQ) is having the ability to parse one’s own emotions as well as navigate the emotions of those around us to the mutual benefit of oneself and society. By contrast, humanity is gifted with consciousness, empathy, and emotions to compliment our brain's raw intelligence. Empathy should be a part of that intelligence, and should be considered as important as raw STEM skills. We can actively avoid this fate by investing in ourselves by changing what is valued in the pursuit of artificial intelligence.
