APA Technology, Mind & Society Conference

I had such an amazing time at the APA Technology, Mind & Society 2018 Conference! This is the first conference (that I’m aware of) to blend my two favorite subjects: Psychology and Technology. The hardest part was deciding which sessions to attend. Some of my favorites involved research related to human/machine interaction, designing social learning machines, encouraging empathy through robotics, social robotics in general, ways to enhance learning and health through technology, and (the most lofty goal of all) improving humanity through relational AI. All so very fascinating… I’m still noodling ideas for future student research projects. I will certainly attend next year’s conference! Big thanks to all of the speakers and organizers!
