Beyond Prompting: Why Process Design Is the Next AI Skill
Prompt writing matters, but process design can create greater value. Learn how to build repeatable AI workflows instead of isolated prompts.
Generative AI Is Changing the Cognitive Ecology of Education, New Psychology Paper Argues
A new Communications Psychology perspective argues that generative AI should not be treated as another classroom tool. Because AI can explain, evaluate, generate and interact continuously, it may redistribute the cognitive work traditionally performed by students and teachers.
AI at Work Changes More Than Productivity: New Research Links Human-AI Interaction to Role Identity
A study published 9 September 2026 found human-AI interaction was positively associated with workplace task performance, partly through employees’ role identity and self-efficacy. The finding suggests AI adoption succeeds not only when the technology works—but when workers still understand what they contribute.
NASA and IBM Launch Open AI Model for the Moon: Why Scientific AI Matters
NASA and IBM have released an open-source Lunar Foundation Model trained on millions of lunar images and multiple mission datasets. The system can help identify craters, possible ice deposits and volcanic features—showing how foundation models could transform scientific discovery.
Can AI Music Improve Flow and Learning? New Psychology Study Finds Attention and Trust Matter
A new Scientific Reports study followed 407 university students after four weeks of AI-generated music listening. Students who perceived the music as useful reported stronger attention and AI trust, which were associated with greater learning engagement and flow—but the findings show association, not proof that AI music causes better learning.
Why Do Some People Feel More Heard by AI? New UK–China Research Examines the Psychology of Listening
A new cultural case study from Cambridge and SOAS examines how a Chinese migrant woman living across China and the UK used generative AI for emotional support. The paper argues that AI may sometimes function as a temporary “care-patch” where human listening feels scarce, delayed or burdensome.
The AI Mirror: Effects Analysis Framework, AI Regulation and the Human Signals Behind the Machine
Mary Oge Chuks introduces the Effects Analysis Framework (EAF), a psychological and systems-based method for analysing AI through signals, observable effects, framing shifts and institutional outcomes — and asks why humanity regulates the reflection without examining the signals it feeds into the mirror.
Effects Analysis Framework: Keep the Cases That Challenge Your Idea
Developing the Effects Analysis Framework means examining counterexamples, comparing attention patterns and separating observed effects from claims of intent.
