What if AI’s biggest impact isn’t on what we do, but on who we become?

From the EGT Framework—Seeing Good, Feeling Good, and Doing Good—to strengths-based approaches that reveal what helps people flourish, they examine how research-informed, human-centered technology can foster wellbeing while addressing safety, ethics, design, and human potential.
