Meaning Lab

Hi there,

My name is Cody, and this is my Substack newsletter, Meaning Lab. I’m a cognitive scientist at the Alan Turing Institute in London. My academic work focuses on the psychology of meaning and how we can design AI in a way to support meaningful experience. My psychological work takes literature and storytelling as the core of meaning, rather than the kind of “human flourishing” perspective associated with, say, positive psychology. In Meaning Lab, I write about what I’ve learned in my academic work and how it can be applied in life more generally.

Thanks for reading,
