AI Behavioural Research Assistant
From two weeks to two days. Am I hallucinating?
What used to take us two weeks—designing good research questions, synthesising academic evidence, structuring insights using behavioural frameworks—now takes just two days with AI.
After few months of prompt engineering, I’ve trained AI to think like a PhD-level behavioural science assistant.
It now helps me:
Generate high-quality research questions
Find reliable and relevant sources for insights
Summarise evidence-based recommendations
👥 Who It’s For
Founders, consultants, researchers, designers, strategists, policy teams, marketing and purpose-driven leaders focused on behaviour change—for creating social impact, financial wellbeing, or sustainability.
💡 What You’ll Walk Away With
✅ Cyber Security Strategies to Reduce Hallucinations
Learn how methods from cyber security can help us reduce AI-generated hallucinations. We’ll share our current AI workflow—and invite your feedback.
✅ Train Your Reliable Research Assistant (Live Demo)
We’ll share prompts on ChatGPT using frameworks like COM-B and EAST—discuss what’s working well, and what needs to improve.
✅ Keeping Humans in the Loop
Learn how we're building verification steps into our research workflow to catch unreliable sources, reduce bias, and keep our recommendations grounded in the real-world.
🎁 Bonus Surprise
Attendees will receive a limited-time offer to join our 2-week course to train AI into a PhD-Level Behavioural Designer—details shared during the session.
Meet Your Host
Vishal George, Chief Behavioural Scientist at Behavioural by Design (Former Head of Behavioural Science at Ogilvy NZ)
My work blends behavioural science, design, and systems thinking to help purpose-driven leaders with social, financial and climate challenges.
A few examples of what my work involves:
(1) Building capability across a large New Zealand bank to become comfortable and confident in applying behavioural science at scale;
(2) Running experiments with government agencies in New Zealand motivating businesses to reduce their carbon footprint and;
(3) Equipping a technology start-up with behavioural design frameworks to enhance safety of truck drivers in India.
