A disturbing trend is emerging in the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and mental health, as a psychiatrist revealed about psychosis cases tied to interactions with AI like ChatGPT. Dr Keith Sakata stated that 12 hospitalisations occurred this year after they detached from reality, citing AI.
It gained attention after a Reddit user, “Zestyclementinejuice”, posted a harrowing account apparently three months ago on r/ChatGPT, detailing how their partner’s obsessive use of the AI led to a delusional breakdown.
