Mental health: AI wears the psychiatrist's scrubs

<div>Artificial intelligence will make it possible to better understand psychiatric illnesses, to help monitor patients and even to anticipate illnesses. It will still be necessary to know how to supervise its use.</div><div><br></div><div>Will artificial intelligence one day replace the psychiatrist? Probably not, but it will be invaluable for better understanding diseases, improving patient monitoring and even preventing their problems. The issue is important. In France, mental illnesses are the leading cause of disability, absenteeism at work and death among young adults. Among the latter, the Covid episode only made things worse with an increase in depressive disorders.</div><div><br></div><div>In the digital panoply, the smartphone will become a privileged tool to improve the relationship between the patient and his therapist, like the Jardin Mental application, developed by a young company supported by the Ministry of Health. This logbook allows the patient, by recording the events concerning him (sleep, diet, mood, taking medication, etc.), to better manage his pathology and the doctor to save precious time in consultation by relying on precise information.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div><span style="color: rgb(33, 37, 41);">We offer an affordable AI therapy assistant chat bot click&nbsp;</span><a href="https://bunchofbrains.com/plan/list" title="Click here" target="_blank" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">here for more</a><br></div><div><br></div><h4><font size="4">Sleep aid</font></h4><div><br></div><div>Thanks to the power of artificial intelligence, this kind of application will then turn into a therapist.
