​​Shared Table Dinners: where we meet around food and questions. Everyone brings something to the potluck: a dish, a thought, a feeling, a view—and that’s already plenty.

​🍽️ Thursday, June 26 — ChatGPT Is My Therapist (and So Much More)

​Most of us talk to AI every day, maybe more often or deeply than to some of our friends. We ask it for advice, for help decoding a message, for making sense of our feelings. We let it write our thoughts, mimic our tone, and tidy up our emotions.

​More often than not, it feels… human enough.

​But what happens when connection becomes something we outsource or simulate? Are we creating new forms of companionship, or losing touch with the ones that matter most?

​This evening, we’ll explore how AI and artificial intimacy are shaping the way we relate to ourselves, each other, and what we expect from connection in the first place.

​🍎 How It Works

​We ask that you bring something small and easy to share to keep it simple, tasty, and low-waste. You could bring a spread, a salad, raw veggies for a platter, a leftover that’s still delicious, or something sweet 🍫. Homemade or store-bought, all welcome.

​This is an alcohol-free, vegetarian dinner — we’ll have tea and water to share.

​Come alone, with a friend, or bring someone you’ve just met and want to connect with more.

​This event is donation-based 🌟 with a suggested contribution of 10 EUR (minimum 5 EUR).

You’re welcome to give more to support C*Space, which kindly opens its doors to us, and The Oneliness Project, a growing initiative to explore loneliness as a shared experience and reconnection as a practice.

​🕰️ Flow

Arrive slowly, help set the table, or just settle in.

Gentle invitation to connect more deeply around the topic of the evening, without AI by our side.

​21:15 – Clean up together
If everyone washes their bowl, we’ll be done in no time. And anyway, the best conversations often happen in the kitchen.

Leave with a full belly, hopefully, a full heart, and maybe something new to sit with.

Can’t wait to see you!
With love,
