    Lecture Summary:

    The practice of psychiatry is already changing dramatically post-Covid with the increase in digital mental health tools, especially tele psychiatry. The next wave of change will be the use of Artificial Intelligence which will be increasingly integrated into clinical practice over the next several years. This talk will focus on the use of AI Agents, to automatically interview patients, and AI scribes and ambient AI systems, to draft initial psychiatric notes, markedly reducing time needed by psychiatrists for interviewing and documentation. These AI “virtual assistants” are taking up roles that are similar to those occupied by trainee psychiatrists - they interview and document histories in advance of the psychiatrist seeing the patient - except that they never forget a question or miss documenting an important part of the history. Demonstrations of these AI tools which are already being used in clinical practice will be part of the presentation.
