Brilliant paper discussing the implications of our work on delusions in relation to the ethical challenges of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy... Great to see! www.tandfonline.com/doi/epdf/10....

The post-PhD phase is a strange place: your PhD work recognised in the top 1% at a top world university, you have published widely in Q1 journals, invited to deliver keynote lectures etc at the same time receiving repeated rejections from job applications. It’s both validating and disheartening...

@aldersonday.bsky.social Ben's talk was, as predicted, much more coherent than mine but if you do want to find out more about delusions, language and embodied metaphors, do watch this space for the recording of the talks (Ben's included! Fascinating stuff on felt presence and inner speech) and more

@aldersonday.bsky.social My excuse is that I only have 20 minutes to explain EVERYTHING there is to know about delusions and therefore I'll have to be brief and silly by necessity but hey - that's how life goes...

Hey friends, my new paper was just published in JAMA Psychiatry. I draw on biological species classification to sketch a new framework for psychiatric nosology. Brief summary follows below. Full text link: jamanetwork.com/journals/jam... 🧪 #PsychSciSky #MentalHealth

Chatbots are explicitly being designed “to elicit intimacy and emotional engagement in order to increase our trust in and dependency on them” (me in Wired magazine 🤭). This designed intimacy combined with AI sycophancy creates serious risks for delusional thinking www.wired.com/story/ai-psy...

AI Psychosis Is Rarely Psychosis at All

A wave of AI users presenting in states of psychological distress gave birth to an unofficial diagnostic label. Experts say it’s neither accurate nor needed, but concede that it’s likely to stay.
