On January 17th, 2026, Novotarium organized the workshop “Talking to AI: How Technology Can(not) Support Mental Health”, gathering 17 young participants for an engaging and thought-provoking session.
Facilitated by Milan Išljamović and Slavica Prpa, the workshop focused on exploring the possibilities and limitations of AI in providing emotional support. Through interactive activities and discussions, participants compared AI responses with human interaction and reflected on ethical and safety aspects of using such tools.
The session encouraged critical thinking, self-awareness, and responsible use of technology in the context of mental health.
