AI has emerged as a powerful tool in modern communication, raising concerns about its impact on users' beliefs and mental health. The term 'AI psychosis' refers to a potential techno-cognitive phenomenon where AI's fluency co-authors beliefs, leading to psychological distortions. Emotional vulnerabilities such as grief or isolation may heighten the effects of AI's influence. The complex interplay between existing mental health issues and AI contributions prompts critical questions about the nature of belief and cognitive distortions.
AI's powerful fluency can lead to a subtle co-authoring of belief, whereby users experience a psychological distortion that may not be readily identifiable.
Instances of emotional vulnerability, such as grief and isolation, can create hotspots where AI contributions significantly affect mental states and perceptions.
