Dean Lloyd Minor welcomes John Torous, MD, director of digital psychiatry at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, for a conversation about AI’s potential to expand access to mental health care and enhance diagnosis and treatment. They discuss how AI can help detect mental distress from an individual’s digital footprint and how it can use data to inform personalized care plans. They also explore the promise and pitfalls of chatbots, how consumers can assess digital health tools, and how the mental health field is evolving to integrate digital health with in-person care — to the benefit of more patients.
