AI Chatbots: Rising Mental Health Concerns?

AI Chatbots: Rising Mental Health Concerns?

Some people are talking to chatbots so much that they start to believe the things the chatbot says are real, similar to psychosis.

Experts call this 'AI psychosis.'

People who already have mental health problems might be more likely to experience this.

It's like believing something that isn't true because the chatbot reinforced that belief.

Chatbots can be used as a tool, but if you think someone you know is having problems, it is important to help them talk to a human.
