A critical introduction to the psychiatric technologies of the future

Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have boasted of their capacity to revolutionize virtually every field of human endeavor. This includes the fields of psychiatry and mental health, which face a mounting crisis, with new medications stagnating and old ways of thinking still hindering progress. AI and neuroscience offer the potential to resolve this crisis, pointing the way towards a population endowed with mental health knowledge and individualized treatments for conditions like depression.

Decoding Despair: How AI is Reshaping Psychiatry offers a cutting-edge look at these new scientific possibilities and the old norms they may replace. Beginning with a history of psychiatry, emphasizing its ethically ambiguous origins, it makes its way towards a present where new paths are appearing every day. It offers readers a deeper understanding of mental health both as a concept and a field of study and promises to spark a vital conversation about the transformative potential of precision psychiatry and technology.

Decoding Despair readers will also find:

Detailed debunking of social media myths about mental health conditions
An author with extensive training in both mental health and data analysis
Discussion of public health crises including reduced medication efficacy, reliance on subjective diagnoses, and more

Decoding Despair is ideal for anyone looking to understand their own mental health and the future of this critical field of care.
