Mindreading with AI

2024 COIN Seminar at University of Cologne, University of Bamberg, HSLU

Welcome to the 2024 COIN (Collaborative Innovation Networks) Seminar taught at MIT, University of Cologne, University of Bamberg, and HSLU


In this seminar we will use latest advances in AI & machine learning to read hitherto unaccessible hidden honest signals of people, animals, and plants.  Subtle or non-verbal cues that people, animals, and plants give off reveal their true thoughts and emotions. These signals can be difficult to detect, but AI and machine learning techniques can potentially be used to identify them. We will apply the  newest and most cutting-edge technologies, as they  are constantly evolving, and have the potential to revolutionize our ability to understand and interact with the world around us. Using these technologies we may be able to gain a deeper understanding of the world and the people in it.

Experience for yourself how connectedness leads to happiness, beauty, and creativity.

This research seminar consists of two parts:

1. Connectedness

2. Mindreading with AI  - Discovering Your Tribe

Connectedness – In an initial admission block workshop, participants will get connected in hybrid mode, co-located at the local participating institutions (MIT, HSLU, U. Cologne, U. Bamberg,), to learn the foundational technologies of Happimetrics for the second, teamwork part.

Mindreading with AI  - Discovering Your Tribe – form a small team, a COIN or Collaborative Innovation Network, and choose a project to analyze communication between people, animals, and plants to  find your tribes and discover how to be cool.

Participants will join active research projects - to further the state of the art of positive psychology, using latest advances of AI and SNA, and combining it with biology and architecture. Participants will work together with researchers and practitioners in the field. The result of the seminar will be new software and hardware solutions, as well as scientific publications.
