What to look forward to
Dr. Howard Teich will explore how Jungian thought and alchemy illuminate intelligence and complementarity in the age of AI, with holograms bringing the ideas to life.
Inside the event
What can ancient wisdom teach us about artificial intelligence?
Have you ever reasoned your way to a decision that still felt wrong? Or brushed off a gut feeling because you couldn’t explain it? As we race to build smarter machines, it’s worth asking whether we’re measuring intelligence the right way.
Join depth psychologist and author Dr. Howard Teich for an evening that reframes how we think about intelligence, both human and artificial. Drawing on the ideas of C.G. Jung and the symbolic language of alchemy, Dr. Teich shows why logic alone is only half the story, and how uniting reason with intuition and grounded experience leads to wiser decisions and a clearer view of the technology we’re building.
What you’ll walk away with
A new understanding of intelligence that values intuition and imagination alongside logic
A practical way to bring reason and intuition together when facing important decisions
A fresh lens on AI: what the race to build smarter machines reveals about us, and what true partnership could look like
An accessible introduction to Jung’s ideas and the timeless symbols of alchemy
See the ideas come to life
This is more than a lecture. Digital art studio Lightbrush debuts How and Wow, a pair of interactive 3D holograms you can explore up close, alongside live projection and real-time visuals.
About Dr. Howard Teich
For more than fifty years, Dr. Howard Teich has developed a unified theory of human consciousness that bridges archetypal psychology, alchemy, mythology and neuroscience. His work on complementarity, the idea that apparent opposites are cooperative partners, offers a compelling framework for understanding the relationship between human and artificial intelligence.
