About the Book

Artificial Intelligence is no longer just a technological advancement—it’s a profound influence on how we think, feel, behave, and interact. As AI continues to shape the human experience, the fields of psychology and AI must come together to address critical questions.

“The Psychology-AI Nexus” is an interdisciplinary edited book that invites cutting-edge research and case studies from across academia and industry. It seeks to explore how psychological science can inform AI design and how AI, in turn, affects human cognition, emotion, identity, and behavior.

This book will serve as a bridge between psychologists and AI researchers, helping each community understand the opportunities and challenges at the interface of minds and machines. It aims to foster a deeper understanding of the complex relationship between humans and intelligent systems, addressing both the opportunities and challenges presented by this evolving nexus.
