Teens are turning to 'My AI' for mental health support -- which doctors warn against

A geography professor shared his method to detect AI-generated plagiarism with Fox News. He developed it after noticing that ChatGPT produced fake citations. Anyone who uses Snapchat now has free access to My AI, the app's built-in artificial intelligence chatbot, first released as a paid feature in February. In addition to serving as a chat companion, the bot can also have some practical purposes, such as offering gift-buying advice, planning trips, suggesting recipes and answering trivia questions, according to Snap. However, while it's not billed as a source of medical advice, some teens have turned to My AI for mental health support -- something many medical experts caution against.
