AI and Mental Health Conference

Open to the public.
AI is already changing how people seek help, understand ourselves, form relationships, and receive care. Young people are turning to AI companions. Patients are using chatbots before they reach a clinician. Doctors are using AI-generated information in diagnosis, treatment, and crisis response. Families, schools, health systems, and communities are trying to understand what is helpful, what is harmful, and what should never be left to machines.
The AI and Mental Health conference brings together our communities with leaders from academia, healthcare, industry, and government to explore these challenges and opportunities. Hosted by the Michigan Institute for Data and AI in Society (MIDAS) and university partners, the conference will foster meaningful dialogue, spark new collaborations and accelerate responsible, human-centered AI innovation.
More than a conference, this event is a call to action. The ideas, perspectives and recommendations generated throughout the event will help shape future research directions, community engagement strategies and policy considerations, creating a lasting resource for researchers, practitioners, decision-makers and communities working at the intersection of AI and mental health.
