AI is reshaping how people pursue happiness, resilience, and personal growth with new tools constantly promising deeper insights and faster transformations.
The science of wellbeing shouldn’t stand aside while tech defines what it means to “live well”.
The International Positive Psychology Association is putting our community at the centre of the discussion — research, practice, education, and coaching.
Join positive psychology professionals worldwide in a virtual summit that cuts through the hype and explores how AI can amplify evidence-based interventions, when it threatens authentic wellbeing, and the ethical responsibilities our field must embrace in this new era.
Examine how AI can amplify evidence-based interventions and when it may undermine authentic wellbeing.
Explore the professional responsibilities that emerge when AI algorithms meet human care.
Gain practical competencies through interactive sessions, expert dialogues, and hands-on workshops.
Connect with positive psychology practitioners and researchers worldwide who are navigating this transformation alongside you.
This five-day experience is designed to move you from optimism about what’s possible through critical awareness about what can get in the way, to agency on the path forward. We will be exploring both the extraordinary possibilities and profound risks AI presents to the future of wellbeing.
Through interactive sessions, expert dialogues, and hands-on skill-building, you'll gain the insight and competence to ensure technology serves, not replaces, the deep, human-centered work of positive psychology.
In the week before we begin, you'll receive learning bites to build your AI baseline. For those who need a 101, we'll demystify the technology, provide simple mental models, and spark curiosity about how it connects to wellbeing. By the beginning of the Summit, you'll have a common vocabulary and awareness of where AI already touches your work, plus an initial sense of both its potential and pitfalls.
Distinguish genuine breakthroughs from marketing claims. Identify immediate opportunities alongside emerging risks. Understand what AI can do for wellbeing — and what it can't.
Explore AI's capabilities in precision diagnostics and hyper-personalized interventions. Discover how AI-driven insights can deepen — not replace — therapeutic and coaching relationships.
Learn what few practitioners are prepared for: AI-induced phenomena, cognitive offloading, and how constant AI interaction affects capacities we're trying to strengthen. Practical prevention strategies included.
Navigate algorithmic bias, privacy concerns, and the balance between efficiency and empathy. Learn how ethical AI implementation actually enhances human connection and trust.
Build competencies that define thriving professionals: AI literacy, human-AI collaboration skills, and ethical discernment — while strengthening empathy, creativity, and moral imagination.
Explore practical AI tools and skills directly applicable to your work, from prompt engineering to AI-driven systematic reviews to custom intervention builders.
Engage with leading experts, including Martin Seligman, Llewellyn van Zyl, and more than 40 pioneers at the frontier of AI and wellbeing.
Join a global community of positive psychology practitioners and researchers navigating this transformation together, building relationships that extend far beyond five days.
This conversation is not about fearing technology or blindly embracing it. It's about ensuring that positive psychology continues to guide what it means to live well in a digital age.
This summit brings together positive psychology researchers and practitioners to shape how AI serves human wellbeing.
Each day follows a structured rhythm designed to balance learning, discussion, and application.

AI is already delivering better diagnostics and reaching more people than all positive psychology practitioners combined will see in their lifetimes.
The real question isn't whether AI will transform the science of wellbeing and its applications — it's whether you'll help shape that transformation.
