    "Digital Painkiller": Is AI Making Us Lonelier?
    May 12 2026
    AI companions may offer immediate emotional relief—but are they quietly making us more isolated? In this thought-provoking episode of the Emotional Longevity Podcast, Dr. Elisha Goldstein examines groundbreaking new research on AI companionship, loneliness, and emotional resilience. Exploring studies from Harvard Business School, MIT Media Lab, and OpenAI, Dr. Goldstein unpacks both sides of AI’s growing role in our emotional lives: from expanding mental health access to potentially increasing emotional dependence. In this episode, you’ll discover: • Why AI can feel emotionally supportive in the short term • How loneliness predisposition impacts outcomes • The hidden dangers of heavy AI reliance • What researchers mean by “digital painkiller effect” • When AI may serve as a healthy emotional processing tool • Why true belonging still depends on human connection As AI becomes increasingly embedded in everyday life, this episode offers an essential framework for using it wisely—without losing ourselves in the process.

    AI is Here. How Do We Use It Without Losing Ourselves?
    May 5 2026
    AI is here—and whether we’re ready or not, it’s already becoming part of how many of us process thoughts, emotions, and uncertainty. In this powerful episode of the Emotional Longevity Podcast, Dr. Elisha Goldstein takes an honest, grounded look at one of the most important emotional health conversations of our time: How can we use AI as a tool without losing our humanity? Drawing from his own personal experiences using AI for brainstorming, clarity, and emotional reflection, Dr. Goldstein explores both the profound benefits and subtle psychological risks of relying on technology for connection. This episode examines how AI can support emotional growth—but also where it may quietly weaken our resilience, discomfort tolerance, and deeper human relationships if used unconsciously. Rather than fear or rejection, this conversation invites curiosity, self-reflection, and intentionality.
