Rosie Wilby and Agnieszka Piotrowska on love, heartbreak and artificial intimacy with Chat GPT, Claude, Replika, Character, Romantic, ...

Rosie Wilby returns for the next chapter of relationship psychology. Dubbed "the queen of breakups" on BBC Radio 4, Rosie is known for her comedic reflections on the human condition. In this podcast recording of The Breakup Monologues, expect humour, heartache and of course science. Grab a drink and join guest Dr Agnieszka Piotrowska, author of AI Intimacy and Psychoanalysis, to discuss love and heartbreak in the age of ChatGPT, Claude and others, and what interacting with AI can teach us about real relationships and ourselves.

This is a double-bill of events that explore trust, truth and versions of reality.

IF Oxford uses Pay What You Decide (PWYD) ticketing, which means you can choose to pay whatever you want — or can afford. You can make your donation during booking, at the event, or afterwards. Please note that there is a free ticket option for this event.

We suggest a donation of £7.50. If even half of IF Oxford's visitors gave that, the charity could plan next year's community science and ideas Festival with confidence. If you decide another amount works better for you, please give that instead — every contribution helps keep the Festival free at the point of entry for everyone who needs it to be — the most important thing is that we can all enjoy a good Festival together, thank you.

All ticket options offer the same access. The contribution associated with this ticket is considered a donation in support of the Festival. Please choose the amount that feels right for you.

Please arrive at least ten minutes before the start. Unclaimed places are released at the start to people waiting at the door, and entry may be refused once the event has begun.

If you do not have a ticket, it is worth coming along — booked-up events often have space on the day.

Ages are a guide only, under-16s to be accompanied by a responsible adult.

The Festival reserves the right to modify event formats and manage the audience in accordance with the Festival's Attendance Policy:
