It's hard to know the exact number of people, say, using mental health apps or AI chatbots.
It's at least 25% of people.
It's one in four.
This is not rare.
We've seen the rise and fall of mental health apps.
We know where the story is going if we don't have clear rules of the road.
So I'm going to put out there, it's anti-innovation not to want some type of oversight.
Happy to be here again.
Thank you.
I'll be a host for a minute.
But again, there's so much interest in what are these chatbots for therapy.
I was just wondering, what is your experience?
Have you tried any of these chatbots offering therapy or therapeutic services?
Yeah.
There's definitely something there to them, right?
That's why people are turning to them.
We could talk about some risks, but they definitely can offer some therapeutic elements out of the box today, which is frankly impressive, right?
Yeah, you can get some pretty harmful and horrific content there.
Probably no one knows what a therapy bot is, and I'll explain why.
These chatbots have become really good at language, especially the English language, because they have read everything on the internet, and most things on the internet are written in English.
