Was so fun to be a guest on @wcnypbs last week!! The inimitable Rich O’Neill and I recorded two episodes on AI and medicine; will add the links once they are out! A picture with long time loves Bert and Ernie were the icing on the cake.
Whatever happened to anonymous refereeing? I keep receiving review requests from journals that disclose the authors’ identities. My response is no.
Taken together, the collection offers a rich and timely resource for teaching and discussion on the use of AI in mental health care.
We’re looking forward to engaging each of them in our forthcoming response.
Our target article, “Beyond Doomsday Fears: Why We Need to Consider the Potential Harms of AI Psychotherapy,” is now out in the American Journal of Bioethics, accompanied by 15 terrific commentaries. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Great review of @thebusyowl.bsky.social's book!
Reclaiming the Self in Psychiatry is an extremely well written and empowering book that can appeal to an interdisciplinary audience ... it brings lived experience back into the heart of psychiatry

So happy to be back in Canada 🍁 to give a talk at McMaster. Canada was my first home away from home as a 22 yr old MA student, and it still feels that way.

Just started -- but it's been brewing for a while, as both @ledaberio.bsky.social and I have been much inspired by recent very cool work by many others, especially @thebusyowl.bsky.social, Elizabeth Schechter, and Daniela Dover
🚨New Paper!🚨
Do you love authenticity? @ledaberio.bsky.social and I argue that maybe you shouldn't!
We think that everything would be better if we all just got over the idea of true selves and were cooler with the fact that we all contain multitudes.

This article raises concerns about the lack of consideration of potential harms of this technology for clinical trial participants, and current and future users.
There is increased enthusiasm about the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies in psychotherapy. Notably, AI psychotherapy chatbots are increasing in popularity, especially since the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) gave one of these apps breakthrough device designation.
Open Peer Commentary (OPC) proposals of roughly one paragraph are due Monday, November 10th. Please submit your proposal via the AJOB Editorial site: mc.manuscriptcentral.com/uajb
