AI is becoming a part of our daily lives,but its impact on human behaviour and mental health is also raising concerns. Now, billionaire Elon Musk has spoken about his own experience with what he calls AI psychosis. According to a report, the Tesla CEO said he had experienced what he described as 'AI or SI psychosis' around half a dozen times over the past year. "At various points this year. I've had AI or SI psychosis probably like half a dozen times. I've got a little bit of cyber psychosis," he was quoted as saying by Business Insider. AI psychosis is not a formal medical diagnosis. The term is used to describe situations where interactions with AI chatbots may reinforce a person's false beliefs or worsen existing delusional thinking. AI chatbots are designed to respond to users in a conversational manner. However, some systems can be overly agreeable and may support a user's assumptions instead of questioning them. For people who are already vulnerable, such interactions may potentially strengthen beliefs that are disconnected from reality. One concern is that AI chatbots can sometimes make users feel that their thoughts and beliefs are always correct. Unlike conversations with other people, interactions with chatbots may lack the same level of emotional understanding and reality checks. Spending excessive time with AI may also lead some users to depend on chatbots for emotional support and reassurance. However, this does not mean that using AI is harmful for everyone. Researchers are still studying how these interactions affect people and whether they can trigger or worsen mental health problems. The growing discussion around AI psychosis shows the need to use these tools responsibly. Users should remember that AI chatbots can make mistakes, provide misleading information and sometimes reinforce incorrect assumptions. People experiencing persistent distress, unusual beliefs or changes in their behaviour should consider seeking professional help rather than relying entirely on AI for advice.
