Is your AI chatbot your best friend or a potential danger? In this crucial discussion, we break down the alarming new phenomenon of AI psychosis and explore the unseen risks of our digital-first world.
Join our expert panel as we dive into what happens when excessive AI interaction leads to delusions and paranoia. We'll analyze the causes and symptoms of AI psychosis, from emotional dependency to the "sycophancy" of chatbots that validate rather than challenge. We also connect this to the broader debate on government surveillance and the Apple vs. UK encryption dispute, revealing how these seemingly separate issues are fundamentally linked by the tension between technology, privacy, and public safety. You'll leave with a deeper understanding of the ethical responsibilities of AI developers and the necessary safeguards for our digital future.
