Founder Friday: AI Is Telling Lonely Women They're Not Alone. We're Actually Making Sure They Aren’t" with Josefine Schedin Nygren, Founder

​Loneliness has become one of the defining public health crises of our time—and increasingly, AI is being positioned as the solution.

​In this thought-provoking session, Josefine explores why synthetic companionship may not be the answer, and shares how ClaraTalks is building something radically different: a free anonymous voice platform connecting women one-on-one for real human conversations.

​This is a conversation about:

• ​What AI should support—but never replace

• ​Building technology that protects human connection

• ​Designing for presence, not dependency

• ​The future of emotional infrastructure in the digital age
