About us
Your guide to the complexity of minds meeting machines. Artificiality is a research and services business founded in 2019 to help people make sense of artificial intelligence and complex change. We publish articles and podcasts and frequently speak on AI and complexity at public and private events around the globe. Our Artificiality Pro membership provides advanced research, strategy, and change management services for AI change leaders and organizations. We are analysts, artificial philosophers, and meta-researchers. We believe that to understand how AI is fundamentally altering our society, communities, workplaces, and personal lives, we have to start with core concepts inherent in philosophy. And we believe that understanding AI requires leveraging research across disciplines: behavioral economics, cognitive science, complexity science, computer science, decision science, design, neuroscience, philosophy, and psychology. We organize our work around an emerging collection of obsessions that follow and forecast the major shifts at the intersection of humans and machines (see note on our inspiration below). Our stories, interviews, and perspectives synthesize and demystify big topics across AI, neuroscience, social sciences, and economics. We create content to help you make personal connections between subjects as broad as artificial minds and Big Tech platforms to evolution and the umwelt of a large language model. Our clients include Capgemini, E.ON, EY, Galp, the House of Beautiful Business, Linn-Benton Community College, Lane Community College, LottoNZ, National Head Start Association, Numenta, Oregon State University, Quartz, R/GA, Santander, Starbucks, the State of Oregon, The New York Times, Webjet, and the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education.

We're excited to welcome Steve Sloman to The Imagining Summit—October 12-14 in Bend, Oregon! Presented in partnership with the House of Beautiful Business, DXM, and BEL. Steve Sloman, professor at Brown University and author of The Knowledge Illusion, will catalyze a conversation about how we perceive knowledge in ourselves, others, and now in machines. What happens when our collective knowledge includes a community of machines? Steve will challenge us to think about the dynamics of knowledge and understanding in an AI-driven world, about the evolving landscape of narratives, and ask the question can AI make us believe in ways that humans make us believe? What would it take for AI to construct a compelling ideology and belief system that humans would want to follow? #ai #artificialintelligence #generativeai #airesearch #complexity #intimacyeconomy #chatgpt #complexchange #changemanagement #futureofwork #artificiality #mindforourminds #intimacyeconomy #agenticweb https://buff.ly/3KO7G5m

We're excited to welcome Barbara Tversky to The Imagining Summit—October 12-14 in Bend, Oregon! Presented in partnership with the House of Beautiful Business, DXM, and BEL. Join Barbara Tversky, author of Mind in Motion and a pioneer in understanding the link between spatial reasoning and abstract thought, for a unique exploration of AI’s challenges. This session will explore what AI might struggle with in the physical world, starting with something as everyday as gesturing. Barbara will reveal how gestures are integral to our thinking process—how we gesture even before we think, and how sitting on our hands hampers our ability to explain. This session highlights how our understanding of human cognition informs what we need to design AI that truly aids our thinking. It offers a fresh perspective on cognitive processes beyond language. #ai #artificialintelligence #generativeai #airesearch #complexity #intimacyeconomy #chatgpt #complexchange #changemanagement #futureofwork #artificiality #mindforourminds #intimacyeconomy #agenticweb https://buff.ly/3KO7G5m
