AI x Mental Health Forum - The Clinician’s Compass
Presented by
The AI Collective – the world’s largest AI community: 80,000+ pioneers – founders, researchers, clinicians, engineers, operators, & investors – exploring the technological frontier. We are the human side of AI.
🔥 Where the front lines of care meet the frontier of AI
South Metro’s first forum uniting clinicians, engineers, and innovators to explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping mental health — candidly, ethically, and with real-world impact.
About Event
AI isn’t just knocking on the door of psychology — it’s already in the room. Clinicians are using AI scribes to cut their documentation time in half. Engineers are designing copilots for intake and triage. Chatbots are delivering CBT at scale. But with these opportunities come critical challenges: HIPAA, algorithmic bias, liability, and the question of what AI should (and shouldn’t) do in care.
This Twin Cities Chapter forum brings together clinicians, psychiatrists, practice owners, engineers, and data scientists in one room. Our goal: explore how to make AI in mental health effective, ethical, and human-centered.
Less hype, more substance. Expect candid conversations, startup spotlights, and real collaboration opportunities — alongside hors d’oeuvres, drinks, and plenty of apps (because we know south of the river folks don’t skip dinner for a meeting).
