Speaking of Psychology · Why listening well is harder -- and more powerful -- than you think, with Guy Itzchakov, PhD · 1 Jul 2026 podcast

There are stories about how an AI helped a person, I think a young uh I don't know if it was uh it was a boy or a girl, ride their suicide ladder.

Uh I think it was in the US and I think there was more than one case.

Now this is this this is the thing that that that scares me because the AI is too validating.

And we wrote about it in a recent paper in the the in the puzzles of listening and the paradoxes of listening, that everyone thinks that okay, so the person-centered supportive listening is the best type of listening always.

No.

It depends on the situation.

Now

Here you have to have so the the the AI is perfect is perfect in re in imitating human behavior.

Perfect, better than us, better than human, but it cannot understand human behavior.

Because it's not human.

So it imitates it perfectly, but it doesn't understand.

And we still need this understanding when w when the situations are difficult.

So so so this and this is this is a big question with with with the the AI now.

AI is the it's like you know the transition from the font like to m my daughters do not know what's a like before the smartphone, like before the s smartphone was the dinosaur era, right?

So you know like like the transition to smartphone that it's it's here to stay.

It's a different level.

level of evolution.

However, one of the things that I'm I wanna s I wanna interested to see how it will work is

What it will do to the social connection, to the amount of conversation that people convey.

There always there is a new study, a very interesting study, that found that people uh speak more than on average.
