The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into everyday life has galvanized a global conversation on the possibilities and perils of AI on human health. In particular, there is a growing need to anticipate and address the potential impact of widely accessible, enhanced, and conversational AI on mental health. We propose 3 considerations to frame how AI may influence population mental health: through the advancement of mental health care; by altering social and economic contexts; and through the policies that shape the adoption, use, and potential abuse of AI-enhanced tools.
人工智能(AI)融入日常生活引发了一场全球范围内关于AI对人类健康的可能性与风险的讨论。特别是,越来越有必要预测并应对广泛可用、功能增强且具备对话能力的AI对心理健康的潜在影响。我们提出三点思考,以构建AI可能影响人群心理健康的框架:通过推进精神卫生保健;通过改变社会和经济环境;以及通过塑造AI增强工具的采用、使用和潜在滥用情况的政策。
