Join me for a workshop where you’ll meet a #deathbot — an #AI chatbot that mimics a deceased historical figure. Try it yourself and dive into the big questions: What feels real? What feels wrong? Could this help with grief?

After 5 rich years at the National Ageing Research Institute, I’m saying goodbye to my amazing team. Excited to extend my work with the creative, out-of-the-box thinkers at RMIT University and explore new ways to mix digital innovation research with my end-of-life expertise.
