When the Algorithm Talks Back: the rise of ChatGPT Induced Psychosis

from The Brink - Mental Health Demystified · host The Brink with Matt Hussey

In this episode, we dive into the unsettling rise of AI-induced psychosis—cases where users report hallucinations, paranoia, and delusions triggered by deep interaction with large language models like ChatGPT. We explore what happens when the line between simulation and reality blurs, how vulnerable minds are interpreting AI as sentient or supernatural, and what mental health experts are saying about this emerging phenomenon. From Reddit confessionals to clinical case studies, this is a journey into the psychological shadow of artificial intelligence.
