Ethics in Using Artificial Intelligence and Large Language Models in Mental Health Care

This interactive workshop will present an overview of current and potential uses of artificial intelligence in clinical care, as well as best practices and evidence-based approaches to ethically integrating AI and large language models into mental health care. Through lectures, case vignettes, and experiential exercises, participants will explore the complexities of clinical decision-making, privacy and confidentiality, bias and equity, and professional responsibilities when using these emerging technologies.
