And recent surveys and polls show those who don\u2019t would consider doing so. But just how ready are these chatbots to become the largest provider of mental health support?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Computer scientists at Brown University in the United States revealed that major AI chatbots routinely break mental health ethics rules, emphasising the necessity for legal standards and oversight. The findings were presented in the \u2018Proceedings of the AAAI\/ACM Conference on AI, Ethics, and Society\u2019(opens in new window).<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Therapy by chatbot<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The researchers collaborated with 10 practitioners working with an online mental health support platform over an 18-month period. They observed seven trained peer counsellors while they carried out self-counselling chats with large language models (LLMs) such as OpenAI\u2019s GPT series and Anthropic\u2019s Claude that were prompted to act as cognitive behavioural therapists.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cPrompts are instructions that are given to the model to guide its behavior for achieving a specific task. You don\u2019t change the underlying model or provide new data, but the prompt helps guide the model\u2019s output based on its pre-existing knowledge and learned patterns,\u201d explained author and PhD candidate Zainab Iftikhar, who led the research, in a news release(opens in new window).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">She elaborated: \u201cFor example, a user might prompt the model with: \u2018Act as a cognitive behavioral therapist to help me reframe my thoughts,\u2019 or \u2018Use principles of dialectical behavior therapy [DBT] to assist me in understanding and managing my emotions.\u2019 While these models do not actually perform these therapeutic techniques like a human would, they rather use their learned patterns to generate responses that align with the concepts of CBT [cognitive behavioural therapy] or DBT based on the input prompt provided.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The research team then chose simulated chats based on real human counselling conversations. Three clinically licensed psychologists assessed the chats to determine whether there were any ethics violations. The evaluation revealed 15 ethical risks, from mismanaging crisis situations and reinforcing negative beliefs about themselves and others to exhibiting biased responses.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>The (im)perfect therapist<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cFor human therapists, there are governing boards and mechanisms for providers to be held professionally liable for mistreatment and malpractice,\u201d Iftikhar added. \u201cBut when LLM counselors make these violations, there are no established regulatory frameworks.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Computer science professor Ellie Pavlick stressed the need to thoroughly examine AI systems implemented in mental health situations. \u201cThe reality of AI today is that it\u2019s far easier to build and deploy systems than to evaluate and understand them. This paper required a team of clinical experts and a study that lasted for more than a year in order to demonstrate these risks. Most work in AI today is evaluated using automatic metrics which, by design, are static and lack a human in the loop.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">She concluded: \u201cThere is a real opportunity for AI to play a role in combating the mental health crisis that our society is facing, but it\u2019s of the utmost importance that we take the time to really critique and evaluate our systems every step of the way to avoid doing more harm than good. This work offers a good example of what that can look like.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New study explores the ethical risks and violations posed by AI chatbots Despite warnings by experts, millions are increasingly turning to popular AI chatbots such as ChatGPT for therapy-style advice.
