I'm passionate about
The safe and effective use of AI in healthcare
An idea worth spreading
The mental health crisis is out of control and overwhelming traditional systems. We need a radical rethink: AI isn't here to replicate therapy, but it can learn a lot from it, and reinvent parts of it. Imagine AI as an emotional support ally, delivering evidence based tools in real time, empowering individuals to thrive. Let's harness this power to build a world where emotional wellbeing is accessible to everyone.
