As humans, we are relentless anthropomorphizers, and it is no accident that Alexa and Siri have names, so that we take these inanimate, artificial things and we humanize them much as we do with our pets.
Imagine a world where your therapist is always available, not just once a week. That's one of the fascinating predictions from Dr. David Goldbloom, Senior Medical Advisor at CAMH, in this engaging episode with Dr. David Gratzer. They dive into how technology is set to revolutionize medical education and mental health care. From human-like virtual assistants like Alexa and Siri to the growing influence of mental health apps, the conversation is both light-hearted and deeply insightful. Dr.
Goldbloom shares five bold predictions for the future, all while acknowledging he might not be around to see if they come true! The episode touches on the challenges and benefits of integrating technology into clinical practice, including the shift in clinician roles and the evolution of research methods. Dr. Goldbloom also revisits his early work with televideo psychiatry and emphasizes the importance of staying ahead with new tech to make informed recommendations for patients.
However, he doesn't shy away from discussing the serious privacy concerns that come with these advancements. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the intersection of technology and mental health care, offering a mix of humor, foresight, and practical advice.
