Never before have we had a technology that performs being human so well. What might this be doing to the psyche?
People are already forming attachments to these systems, confiding in them, dreaming about them, and even rearranging their inner lives around them. Depth psychology has spent more than a century studying what goes on beneath the surface of our relationships, and it has a great deal to say about what passes between a person and a machine that appears to understand them. Thinking that includes the consequences of AI on the psyche and the unconscious belong closer to the centre of the conversation that is currently shaped by technologists and policymakers. That’s what this summit is for.
This first summit on AI and the Psyche, organised and chaired by Lisa Marchiano and Aaron Balick, is bringing together some of the most original minds working in this area, including Sherry Turkle, Todd Essig, Alessandra Lemma, James Muldoon, Glen Slater and Zak Stein. Find out what’s most on top of their minds at the moment and listen as they puzzle them through in a panel discussion - then join in as we open the conversation to participants.
This event took place on October 8th, 2026.
