TUM Vorhoelzer Forum

We are very happy to welcome Dr. Johannes Eichstaedt (Stanford / INSEAD) in person at TUM, where he will give a talk on:Using Psychological Science to Understand and Improve the Impact of AI Date: 20 April 2026 Time: 15:00h – 16:30h Location: TUM Vorhoelzer Forum or <a href="https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/31486429556190?p=MEWfGfmemntJ3pQoH6" title="https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/31486429556190?p=MEWfGfmemntJ3pQoH6" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">MS Teams</a> (ID: 314 864 295 561 90; Passcode: dK3cW36w) What to expect: Johannes will discuss how AI and large language models (LLMs) are increasingly being woven into our social and professional fabric. This shift presents an opportunity to integrate psychological wisdom into these AI systems, enabling interactions that benefit our mental health and well-being. He will present research on how LLMs can advocate for policy positions and contribute to happiness and meaning in life. In mental health specifically, LLMs may substantially expand access to care, assisting in therapist training and therapy delivery. Finally, Johannes will discuss on why we need to think harder and with greater specificity about the impact of AI on people and organizations and move beyond the simplistic narratives presented by Silicon Valley and airport bookstores. There will also be time to discuss what these developments may mean for the future of science and universities globally. Dr. Johannes Eichstaedt is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Stanford and a Shriram faculty fellow at the Institute for Human-Centered A.I. He uses Natural Language Processing and LLMs to measure and improve mental health. In 2011, he co-founded the World Well-Being Project, now a consortium of psychology and computer science labs across four universities. Originally trained as a physicist, Johannes received his Ph.D. and clinical training at the University of Pennsylvania. Johannes was elected a rising star and emerging leader by three scientific organizations, has published 85+ articles, and has served as an expert for the United Nations and several governments. In the 2025/2026 academic year, he is visiting INSEAD, near Paris. We are looking forward to an exciting talk. Faculty, students, and guests are welcome. Best regards, Isabell Welpe, Theresa Treffers &amp; Team (Chair for Strategy and Organization)
