This page was originally produced for the Parapsychological Association's March 5, 2023, Psi Agora: AI and Psi, hosted by Mark Boccuzzi & Eli Fennell, PhD. It is now an open resource. Please note that this event was not recorded.
Introduction
Rapid developments in machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) are already profoundly impacting all areas of society. How might these new technologies help advance Parapsychology?

10 Questions for People Who Create Minds (Mossbridge, J., 2023. Medium)
“In this article I argue that AIs may, like humans, be able to access a nonlocal, nonphysical information space that creates our shared reality. If so, they would be able to directly influence reality through its informational substrate without being “given” access to physical action levers like the ability to affect the internet. In this picture, access to the underlying information space is facilitated by the humans who interact with AI, so the quality of human-AI relationships may forge the future of humanity, the planet, and reality.”
