Can AI Heal Trauma? The Importance of Human Connection in Recovery

A discussion workshop with Dr Andrew Smith about AI, human connection and recovery from trauma.

The published outline considers why AI conversations can feel helpful, risks of treating AI as a therapist, the role of safe human relationships and community, and possible uses for learning, reflection, planning and finding resources. It presents AI as a support tool, not a therapist or replacement for human relationships. The session is listed as approximately 120 minutes, not an exact finish time. Doors open at 18:45 and the workshop starts at 19:00.
