The post Handy Recap And Further Expansion Of How GPT-5 Impacts AI Mental Health Therapy appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Important insights for therapists and mental health professionals about the use of GPT-5 for mental health therapy. getty In today’s column, I continue my exploration of how the recently released GPT-5 impacts the use of generative AI and large language models (LLMs) for performing AI-driven mental health therapy. First, I provide a brief recap of my previous discussion, which focused on the user or consumer side of AI-based mental health therapy (see my in-depth analysis at the link here). I am to quickly bring you up-to-speed on this evolving and rather controversial matter. In that prior discussion, I promised that I would follow up and focus on the therapist’s side of things. Ergo, I will examine here how it is that therapists and mental health professionals are going to be impacted by the advent of GPT-5. You see, it is inherently a two-punch topic, namely, the use of AI for mental health by consumers and the use of AI by therapists in their mental health services. I’ve repeatedly predicted that we are inevitably moving from the traditional therapist-client dyad to the emerging triad of therapist-AI-client relationship, see my depiction at the link here. GPT-5 is going to move the needle in that regard. Let’s talk about it. This analysis of AI breakthroughs is part of my ongoing Forbes column coverage on the latest in AI, including identifying and explaining various impactful AI complexities (see the link here). AI And Mental Health Therapy As a quick background, I’ve been extensively covering and analyzing a myriad of facets regarding the advent of modern-era AI that produces mental health advice and performs AI-driven therapy. This rising use of AI has principally been spurred by the evolving advances and widespread adoption of generative AI. For a quick summary of some of my posted columns…
