They will discuss issues of transparency, data protection, and bias, with reference to APA’s evaluation tools and emerging professional guidelines. They will conclude with a short applied section illustrating how AI can be used responsibly in everyday practice.
Learning Objectives:
By the end of the presentation, participants will be able to:
- Describe key concepts and current trends in AI relevant to psychological practice.
- Identify ethical, legal, and professional considerations for integrating AI tools, including those outlined in APA guidance.
- Apply strategies for responsibly exploring AI in practice.
