They care to a point, in general. If it's a stranger, they generally feel they have a mlral obligation to do something to try to help. They will attempt to do so in order to justify their self-labeling as a "good person." Once they have invested some arbitrary amount of time, they will almost inevitably come to the conclusion that they can't fix someone's life with words. So, having invested said amount of time, they can abandon the stranger with a clean conscious. "I did everything i could."
For people they know, people will invest ad much effort as they see the person as worth. Im nit sure about the exact parameters of your question, but there it goes.
Though, scientists had thought in the past that humans were entirely selfish creatures, incaoable of feeling empathy. Turns out, that's not true. A part of the brain dedicated to empathy was found. So, we're entirely selfish with the capacity to feel empathy.
