tech companies and tbh insurance providers which are for obvious reasons heavily invested in this research just as they are heavily invested in using "AI" to "optimize" mental healthcare coverage denial and to push therapists out of their networks......it's a closed circle

no problem. fwiw my own work focuses on AI in mental healthcare administration (triaging/screening) rather than therapy

The findings “suggest that medical AI tools powered by LLMs have a tendency to not reflect the severity of symptoms among female patients, while also displaying less ‘empathy’ towards Black and Asian ones.”
AI medical tools downplay symptoms in women and ethnic minorities
Large language models reflect biases that can lead to inferior healthcare advice to female, Black and Asian patients
