In this episode of CBmE & U, Associate Professor Charlotte Blease (Uppsala University) talks about the placebo process for validating and testing mental health chatbots. With James and Sinead, Charlotte discusses whether, if we don't have the means to measure whether things like ChatGBT and theratbot are making us better or worse off, are justified in letting people use them? And importantly, when you get those pesky or uncomfortable messages from people, should you use openAI to write them? Or are we doing something wrong turning to AI instead of people? 

Remember people, be savvy!
