AI and the WEIRD Mind

Who is AI really learning from—and who is it leaving out? In this episode of AnthroIntelligence: Culture, Cognition, and Code, I explore how artificial intelligence inherits the psychology of the WEIRD world—Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic societies—and what happens when those assumptions shape machines that now listen, comfort, and judge.

From ChatGPT psychosis to the rise of models like Centaur that mimic human cognition, this episode asks a deeper question: what happens when algorithms trained on Western minds start interpreting non-Western lives? The danger isn’t just bias—it’s misunderstanding humanity itself.
