Transcriptions are exactly the kind of thing ai is perfect for tho, there’s no judgement involved and since it’s timestamped you can instantly check/correct any mistakes against the original.
I wouldn’t want a llm therapist either but a llm stenographer is fine imo
At the same time, my last therapist was very discretionary in what she wrote down. She didn’t want any sensitive information to be able to be obtained by a hostile government. This is common practice. Full transcription removes that discretion
Basically every SaaS therapy company (Better Help, Talkspace, Rula, etc) is doing a lot of shit with LLMs.
Even stuff like SimplePractice (which is a very basic EHR) is offering AI session transcriptions now.

Unless it hallucinates a session and the provider doesn’t notice…
Yes, and we have had those for over a decade. I find the newer LLM based transcription far worse than what we had before with other forms of AI.

i always assumed those companies were AI from the get-go, basically chatboxes. might as well go to webmd for your symptoms.
