AI therapy is here. What does it mean for you? w/ Dr. Alison Darcy and Brian Chandler

Bilawal talks with Dr. Alison Darcy, the founder of mental health app Woebot, and Brian Chandler, an app user, to learn what chatbots reveal about our inner lives and what they can (and can’t) do when it comes to emotional wellness.
