AI app could change the way mental illness is diagnosed

They've developed an app that could change the way clinicians diagnose mental illness. Whether you're scrolling Facebook or talking to Siri, you're already interacting with artificial intelligence or AI – smart machines that learn through analyzing data. "AI has the potential to learn a lot of things that humans aren't able to learn," said CU graduate student Chelsea Chandler. Chandler is part of a team using AI to tackle a much heavier subject. "We can collect data about their mental state," said CU Research Professor Peter Foltz.
