The Science of Thinking with Artificial Intelligence
Watch the talkRogue Talks: Orchestrated Panic, Neural Warfare & Artificial Minds
5 February 2026
Hosted by Made by Many
Three talks, three topics, the same existential questions. Rogue Talks has pivoted so we can cover more wonder, more weirdness, and more provocations across design, tech, and humanity. This time, what’s the psychology behind horror movie scores giving us the creeps? How is neuroscience being weaponised for violence? And the 21st century age question: is AI making us stupid?
Please note the venue is on the second floor of a historic listed wharf and can only be accessed and evacuated by stairs. Unfortunately, it does not have facilities for visitors with limited mobility, so please take this into account when planning your visit.
