Artificial Aid: AI in the Age of the Everyday Hero

Navigating the mental health space, I read different perspectives on AI. From its benefits, its drawbacks. From how it’s helpful to how it’s harmful. Depending on who you ask, it may take the role of villain, ally, mentor, or useful tool. Some people love it, some hate it, others are afraid of it. In mental health work, specifically, opinions are polarizing. It’s very easy to see the benefits of AI, but at the same time, observe the harmful influence.
