HB 1195 — Psychotherapy Artificial Intelligence Restrictions
HB 1195 restricts the use of AI in psychotherapy services to prevent unauthorized AI systems from providing therapeutic recommendations, detecting emotions, or interacting directly with clients. It mandates informed consent for AI-assisted recordings and prohibits marketing AI as equivalent to professional psychotherapy, addressing risks of mental health harm from unregulated AI use.
