PhD position summary/title:– PHD FELLOWSHIP FOR THE CRITICAL EXPLORATION OF GENERATIVE AI, DIGITAL PHENOTYPING AND MENTAL HEALTH
The purpose of AIM is to conduct a wide-ranging and critical study of the dynamics and developments of digital mental health. Artificial intelligence is rapidly entering the field of mental health, spurred on by the high prevalence of mental health problems and a lack of treatment access. In response to these challenges, academic researchers and private companies are increasingly developing products and services for mental health which are based on generative AI, in the hope that AI can improve psychiatry and help solve the mental health crisis. These technologies include digital phenotyping which focuses on diagnosing and monitoring mental health problems, and chatbots for treatment of mental health problems. However, developing and using generative AI for mental health problems involve complex and unanswered questions, and we must critically explore the governmental, technical, and ethical challenges that arise from these pressing developments.
AIM focuses on generative AI and machine learning for mental health, with a particular emphasis on two emerging technologies which utilize generative AI and machine learning: chatbots for mental health therapy and digital phenotyping for detecting, diagnosing and/or monitoring mental health problems. AIM will explore these technologies and the emerging field of digital mental health, with a particular focus on questions of governance(e.g., how are these technologies governed and made accountable in practice?), explainability(e.g., how is explainability understood by researchers, developers and users within AI based therapy and diagnostics for mental health?) and trust(e.g., how and why do people trust digital mental health technologies?).
