On 60 Minutes, Dr. Jon LaPook explores how AI is revolutionizing mental health care by filling the gap caused by a critical shortage of human therapists. He highlights AI-driven chatbots that provide round-the-clock mental health support directly from smartphones, emphasizing their potential to offer immediate help. However, Dr. LaPook also points out that not all chatbots are created equal, with some being more effective than others. The segment features Allison Darcy, an innovator merging tech with therapy, who sees these digital tools as the future of accessible mental health care.
