AI in Digital Mental Health

Great forum for very meaningful discussions with a highly engaged class! Might want to add that mental health is apparently much more amenable to chatbots than say your migraines. As the prevalence of "AI therapy" in a new Harvard Business Review article, as well as recently published data in JAMA Pediatrics shows, almost 20% of adolescents turn to AI for mental health support. It's the #1 use case for chatbots overall. We should start regulating it accordingly. Even if the risk-benefit ratio might be very positive - there should be more public scrutiny!
