Lyrа Launches 'Clinical-Grade' Chatbot Amid Growing Concern
Lyrа Health has launched a "clinical-grade" chatbot amid growing concern about mental health and artificial intelligence.
Lyrа Health announced that its members will be able to discuss their mental health with a chatbot, making it the largest company to launch a generative artificial intelligence product as part of ongoing therapy treatment.
The chatbot, called Lyrа AI, joins a number of smaller mental health startups that have incorporated generative AI into their offerings.
Experts, regulators, and lawmakers have expressed concern that the tech can behave unpredictably, with evidence that consumer bots such as ChatGPT are causing people to spiral into delusions, and bots have allegedly been involved in cases where users harmed themselves.
Companies are barreling ahead with using products powered by large language models in care.
