“many such warnings go unheeded — such as the need for a cultivation of shared values and especially the principles of impartiality of researchers … from corporate influence — we find ourselves in polycrises that affect our universities, political systems, planet, and ultimately all humanity.” 2/n

Excited to speak this week at #ZAMM2025, a conference about the science, medicine, art, and culture of managing apocalyptic risks. It's refreshing to find a platform that provides a playful, de-siloed approach to the present polycrises. Can't wait to play and learn this week!

💯 this. We live in global polycrises. But we have the tools, the tech, and the money to fix it all!
But, the system is built to protect the status quo and protect entrenched wealth.
We can change it. But we have to demand it!

We end on an appeal to our fellow psychologists:
"To sit idly by while deskilling and displacing of [our]selves is normalised [...] serves [solely] the technology sector, which avoids criticism and self-reflection and prefers pseudoscience and misinformation."

Fifth, the equivocation of human-human & human-AI relationships; a slip that is so ubiquitous that most seem to ignore it, but it's harmful and even probably illegal or against codes of conduct in many settings that involve professional psychologists. See section 7: doi.org/10.31234/osf...

![These problematic beliefs exist on a spectrum, from the assumption that AI products can help in mental health (e.g. Dehbozorgi et al., 2025; Siddals et al., 2024; Wellcome, 2025) to the
assertion that a chatbot can be a therapist (Kilgore, 2025), which
is a regulated profession (e.g. European Federation of Psychologists’ Associations, 2025) with codes of ethics (e.g. American Psychological Association, 2017; British Psychological Society, 2021).
Proponents of these beliefs use the guise of labour shortages and
the global mental health crisis (Kaplan, 2024), as cover to deskill
(for an alarming case, see Budzyń et al., 2025; also Akingbola et
al., 2024; Lebovitz et al., 2021), contributing to the polycrises the
technology industry and their allies uniquely profit from (McConnell & Jacobs, 2025).
All AI, and indeed any technology in mental or other healthcare settings requires “keeping users safe [and this in turn] requires substantial input from clinicians and careful planning to
reduce risk.” (Abrams, 2025) This is key because it is not possible to keep people safe without a highly qualified human-in-theloop (Amironesei et al., 2021; El-Mhamdi et al., 2022; T. Liu et
al., 2025; Salecha et al., 2024; Sharma et al., 2025; Weidinger et al.,
2022) and even then the risk of deskilling is present (e.g. Budzyń
et al., 2025; recall section 4: Outsourcing Programming to Companies). Relatedly, and taking the example of the therapist-client
relationship, dehumanising parallels encoded in expressions such
as: “the country needs all the quality therapists we can get —
be they human or bot” (Riddle, 2025) cannot become normal
in our scientific discussions. No therapist under proper ethical
functioning would cause their client to be addicted to their therapy (Huntington, 2025) nor would they, as in the Replika example (The Luddite, 2024), introduce a sexual relationship between
them and their client (Pettit, 2024b). Any such suggestions to
use a chatbot as a therapist would go aga…](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:vsyj5jtayxcq5dw5mtja4xtb/bafkreigr3wk3yvqjp5vxuc3esobfssy64gnx2xhlkxe4ahac27gxlri6p4@jpeg)

This is anything but soft or a distraction to the polycrises we are in: these kinds of practices are essential to stay engaged, present, and clear minded. Otherwise we are on the road to burnout. Let’s do this 💚

Please read and repost. The Reform party’s team is made up of criminals and racists. Journalists and news media should not be giving Reform a free pass. They should be scrutinised, questioned, and exposed for what they are, a party with net zero solutions to an age of polycrises.
Michael Crick, journalist: “It depresses me how much fellow political journalists are down-playing this - a dranatic story not just about Russia corrupting a British politician - as they've done in Germany & France - but also about the character judgement+relationships of Reform leaders Farage+Tice”
“The former leader of Reform UK in Wales has pleaded guilty to bribery charges relating to making statements in favour of Russia while being an elected member of the European Parliament.” 1/
