Martin Seligman is an American psychologist, educator, and author known for his work on well-being and positive psychology, as well as his theory of learned helplessness. He is a leading advocate within the scientific community for research into what constitutes flourishing human lives, a body of work that has informed broader discussions of well-being. A 2002 survey published in the Review of General Psychology ranked him as the 31st most cited psychologist of the 20th century. His research on human flourishing has been cited by researchers arguing that AI development should be grounded in scientific understanding of wellbeing rather than abstract principles.
