Conversational AI is being developed to assist pediatric mental health through chatbots that utilize natural language processing and machine learning. These chatbots can provide mood tracking, psychoeducation, skills training, and emotional support, helping children manage their emotions and cope with anxiety and depression. The rise in mental health disorders among children highlights the need for accessible and stigma-free support, which AI can help facilitate.
Despite the potential of AI-driven chatbots, challenges such as data privacy, accuracy, and the need for human oversight remain. The integration of these tools into traditional mental health care could bridge gaps in access, especially in underserved communities. As AI technology evolves, careful implementation and ethical considerations will be crucial to ensure effective support for children's mental health.
• AI chatbots can provide 24/7 mental health support for children.
• Conversational AI helps children recognize and regulate their emotions.
