[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AI therapists can be as good and even better than human therapists.

The researchers gathered a group of roughly 200 people who had diagnosable conditions like depression and anxiety, or were at risk of developing eating disorders. Half of them worked with AI therapy bots. Compared to those that did not receive treatment, those who did showed significant improvement.

"The therabot in this study checks a bunch of the boxes that we have been hoping technologists would start to engage in," says Vaile Wright, director for the Office of Health Care Innovation at the APA. "It is rooted in psychological science. It is demonstrating some efficacy and safety, and it's been co-created by subject matter experts for the purposes of addressing mental health issues."

Yes we know Russian bots would like Americans to get on AI therapy.

If you are preselected for a condition that is garden variety, maybe. But many other people are out there dealing with all sorts of things. If AI therapy amplifies the thought distortions of someone with issues that would not be good.[/quote]
