The Potential of AI Chatbots in Mental Health Support

Hey everyone! I came across this article discussing AI chatbots that can listen to your problems and I found it super interesting. I understand that the science isn’t clear on whether they truly help with mental health, but I think the potential is definitely there. Imagine having a non-judgmental AI to talk to whenever you need it. I think it could be a great additional support tool, especially for those who might not feel comfortable talking to a person. What are your thoughts on this? Do you think AI chatbots have a place in mental health support or are they better left to human professionals?
