That's the one that I think takes, is that going to move up? Is that going to move down? Is it going to be important as we move forward? So with that context, John, where are we overestimating what this technology can help us do, especially when it comes to students and youth who are higher risk and who have complex mental health needs?
John McPheeGUEST
Okay, so where are we overestimating what it can do? I feel the need to first say, and everybody I think understands this, that what is it designed to do and who's producing it? And since we're talking about youth, oversimplifying it, but one category is what we're here to talk about, or what many of you are working in, which is how to use AI to better deliver healthcare, right? Another bucket is the general purpose AI, chat, chat GPT, Claude, et cetera.
John McPheeGUEST
And a third bucket is a bucket that is trying to use AI to make money, profiteer off children and their time and their relationships and attention, et cetera.
John McPheeGUEST
And I think we have to keep an eye on all three because all three present different risks and are all part of the system.
John McPheeGUEST
I'm least worried about what's happening here, even though I think, you know, there's need for regulation and shared sort of, you know, norms, et cetera.
John McPheeGUEST
But what I would say to answer your question is, look, the protective factors for youth mental health have been discussed a lot of them here today.
