When Your AI Therapist Violates Confidentiality

from AI Ethics with Fexingo: Bias, Safety, and Responsible Artificial Intelligence · host Fexingo

Episode 53 of AI Ethics with Fexingo examines the privacy risks of AI-powered mental health chatbots. Lucas and Luna discuss a 2025 study where an AI therapist platform inadvertently shared session data with advertisers, citing a case involving a user whose therapy transcripts were used to target ads for antidepressants and sleep aids. They explore how current regulations like HIPAA in the US and GDPR in Europe fall short for AI-generated emotional data, and what safeguards are needed. The hosts also touch on the tension between improving AI therapy through data collection and protecting user privacy, asking whether the convenience of AI therapy is worth the potential breach of trust. #AIEthics #Technology #Privacy #MentalHealth #AIChatbot #Therapy #HIPAA #GDPR #DataPrivacy #AlgorithmicBias #TechEthics #DigitalHealth #EmotionalData #InformedConsent #AISafety #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #AITherapy Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
