Join Hume AI CEO Dr. Alan Cowen, thymia CEO Dr. Emilia Molimpakis, and host Matt Forte as they discuss “The Future of Mental Health Assessment." Today, a clinical diagnosis is largely the result of a conversation, nonverbal signals, and a doctor's intuition. Can technology help us improve, but not replace, this crucial element of subjectivity? We discuss how machine learning tools to understand vocal and nonverbal communication can revolutionize mental health assessment, helping us more reliably measure symptoms of pain, major depression, cognitive impairment, and other disorders, and paving the way for more targeted and holistic treatments.
