A quick history of AI in psychological therapy

In the early days of AI, psychological therapy was one of the first applications for the technology. By the early 1990s, AI had been used to develop a number of successful psychological therapies, including cognitive behavioral therapy, rational emotive therapy, and problem-solving therapy.

AI has also been used to develop new therapies, such as virtual reality therapy and avatar therapy. These therapies are still in their early stages of development, but they hold promise for helping people with a variety of psychological issues.

AI is also being used to develop new ways of diagnosing mental disorders. This is a controversial area, as some people worry that AI will be used to diagnose people who are not actually ill. However, if used correctly, AI could help to improve the accuracy of diagnoses and make mental health care more accessible.
