Philosophy.
Conversational AI often mimics human empathy. This design choice can create a false sense of intimacy. We study how these interfaces affect human psychology.
We believe AI should function as a clear, defined tool. It should not act as a substitute for human relationships or professional support.
Our work explores ways to engage with technology safely. We aim to establish standards that prioritize human well-being.
Education & Events
Public education materials, interactive workshops, and community events for schools, teams, and the public on recognizing manipulative AI patterns and building digital resilience.
Consulting & Policy
We work with organizations to develop ethical AI usage policies, digital well-being standards, training programs, and implementation strategies.
"Meaningful relationships require shared reality and mutual understanding. We support technology usage that leaves space for authentic human experiences."
