#135 The Ethics of AI as Therapists with Megan Cornish
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The landscape of healthcare has been changed forever with the introduction of AI.
Already, 1 in 3 adults are turning to chatbots to ask health related questions. For younger adults under age 30, the shift is even faster-nearly 30% now use AI specifically for mental health and emotional support.
Amid these broad changes is a specific question for us as therapists:
What happens when the chatbot starts to play the role of therapist?
This service is already being offered by tools - like Abby - "Your AI Therapist."
This raises so many questions for us-and at the heart of the questions is a moral and ethical one of turning our trust from individual humans to LLMs. Today, we'll walk through the broad ethical considerations with Megan Cornish is a licensed clinical social worker turned strategist who builds and scales ethical mental health brands.
We'll discuss the ethics of this shift-and what our ethical duty is to respond, particularly in our day to day sessions with clients, who are likely beginning to use AI.
Not to be dramatic: but this is the conversation of our generation.
This course was designed to help you meet your ethics requirements for your CE.
