In this second edition of our Loneliness series we explore the role of AI in helping to bridge isolation and loneliness challenges.

Loneliness is no longer a silent epidemic — but have we made meaningful progress? This post revisits the global and local conversation, from UK policy shifts to new research here in Aotearoa - and the role digital technology plays in this space.

Is technology removing our ability to think critically? is our reliance on AI to summarise emails, write meeting notes and documents leading to an overall reduction in capability? What do you think?

What does it mean by giving fearless advice? when should you speak up? or hold your tongue? should you call out bad decisions or just unethical or illegal practices? This post describes our responsibilities as subject matter experts and IT Professionals.
