Imagine returning home after a long day at work, after just completing nine hours in the job. While skipping the door, Chatbot refers you to artificial intelligence (AI) by setting lights in your room. Then he asks, “Hey! How was your day today?” Chatbot listens to attention to everything you say, provides comfort and provides the best advice.
This scenario will be a reality in the near future. Human treatments will not be able to charge exorbitant fees because they are just an ear of vigilance for their patients.
A recent research study published in the New England magazine highlighted that artificial intelligence robots, if trained properly, can be good or better than human therapists in mental health assistance.
The New England magazine for medicine conducted a major test for the treatment of artificial intelligence, as people were randomly chosen for his experience. Scientists from Dartmouth College made this robot from artificial intelligence to counter a major problem in the United States: there are no sufficient mental health workers.
Researchers have taken about 200 people with mental health problems such as depression or anxiety or were at risk of eating disorders. They divided it into two groups: used half of the artificial intelligence treatment robot, and the other half did not get any treatment. People who used the robot became much better compared to those who did not.
The researchers were surprised by the admiration of the people and their robe from artificial intelligence. He said they had built a strong relationship with her, and they felt that they could cooperate with the robot to work on their mental health. In human therapy, confidence and interconnection with the therapist is the key to success, and it appears that the artificial intelligence robot does so as well.
According to Reports, “Humans cannot keep up with the demand because there is a single mental health expert only for every 340 people. The idea is that AI can enter to help more people because it is easier to create more robots than training more people,” said Nick Jacobson, a psychologist on the team.
Many artificial intelligence robots there already say they can help in mental health, but some do not work well and may harm people themselves.
More than five years ago, Nick Jacobson and his team began building artificial intelligence robot, and taught her the best ways to do treatment based on what experts know.
It took a lot of experience and correcting errors to get them properly. Jacobson says their robot is now working in addition to the best treatment studies with humans, as it corresponds to the results you will get from the treatment by real therapists.
One wonderful thing about artificial intelligence treatment is that it is available at any time, unlike the human therapists who put hours. Nick Jacobson said he was shocked by the number of times that people used their robots from artificial intelligence, such as a midnight correspondence about sleep problems and help immediately.
The American Psychological Association (APA) was recently concerned about the non -completely examined artificial intelligence robots, saying it might be risky. But they are happy with this specific robot because the Jacobson team is making a great effort to train it properly through real clinical knowledge.
Phil Wright of the American Psychological Association (APA) says that the treatment robot of artificial intelligence is a big step in the right direction. It is designed with real psychology knowledge; It works well and seems safe, and has been made. APA encourages technology creators to focus on mental health issues with the help of experts.
Dartmouth team behind the robot says it is not ready for everyone to use yet. More tests are needed to ensure that they are good enough for sale or use.
Wright also says that human therapists should not worry them from taking their functions from artificial intelligence. There is this giant deficiency in mental health in the United States, where we need all good therapists that we can get, whether they are people or robots. She believes that there is a lot of work for both.
You will find countries like India, where mentally disturbed people or depression are crazy, this artificial intelligence processor is especially useful.
