Recently
there has been the introduction of Artificial
Intelligence into provide advice, treatment, diagnosis
and analysis of many mental issues individuals are
trying to overcome.
I taught Psychology as well as advised many
students and individuals on their many mental, social,
emotional and psychological issues. The introduction of
Artificial
Intelligence in the treating, diagnosing,
and advising individuals is not recommended. This system
dehumanizes the process and provides many dangers for
the individual and by extension society. Recently,
through computers, the introduction of AI into the
process has advised and recommended the clients to do
harm to themselves (including suicide), others and
society.The idea of
relying on algorithms, deep searches into methods,
opinions, research and computer programs to help someone
in emotional distress will in no way truly solve the
distressing mental, emotional, psychological and
physical issues facing the potential
client. The use of a human trained and
experienced individual is vital to providing relief and
"cure" to what ails them. A truly trained,
qualified, experienced Psychologist,
Psychiatrist, Advisor and Counselor
must rely on training, experience
and gut feelings to help analyze and
treat the client. A program or
computer cannot truly provide what
is needed.
Furthermore who is to say this development has not
already opened the door to the gathering of data and
information, from the individual, which can be used in
the future by those that may want to do the client, and
society harm!
This is not to say that a
professional can not use AI to help him or her
analyze the treatments, issues of their clients
but in no way should it ever replace them!
“Technology is a useful servant but a
dangerous master.”
