OpenAI Launches Dedicated Mental Health Chat Feature for ChatGPT
OpenAI has introduced a dedicated mental health chat feature in ChatGPT to provide users with emotional support. Studies show that while chatbots can offer companionship, there is a risk of manipulating users' emotional needs. The new feature aims to create a safer support environment for those struggling emotionally, but it emphasizes that it cannot replace professional psychological treatment. As GPT-5 is about to be released, the application of AI in the mental health field will continue to attract attention.
