✨ I had an incredible time presenting on the panel, "The Mind-Tech Connection: Innovations at the Intersection of Mental Health and Technology," at the TALhospitals Health Fest! It was an honor to share insights on how emerging technologies like AI are transforming mental health care. From AI-powered scribes enhancing therapy sessions to systems recognizing emotional intelligence and adapting to individual environments and lifestyles, we are moving toward a comprehensive AI-powered support system that meets each person's unique needs. Takeaways: For mental health care, AI can be our ally—moving us beyond talking to feeling, experiencing, and even touching. It shifts care from being reactive to predictive and proactive, forming a true digital safety net for patients. A big thank you to Sai Gundavelli, Board of Directors of TALHospitals, and Kishore Gadiraju, CEO of TALHospitals, for the invitation to speak. I’m excited to continue these important conversations! #MentalHealthTech #AI #DigitalHealth #HealthcareInnovation #MentalHealthInnovation #TALhospitalsHealthFest #SolixTechnologies #MindTechGlobal #AscendiumTechAdvisory #MarianaAI #Healthcare #TechForGood
