Description
The use of artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming the norm for clinical psychologists. Despite expansion, literature has highlighted variable preparation among practitioners for the use of AI in clinical services, creating potential issues for an ethical, legal, safe, and evidence-informed practice. This 3-hr webinar is designed to provide clinical psychologists with an introductory discussion of AI use, ethics, and legal considerations. Uses, benefits, limitations, competencies, and ethical/legal logistics (e.g., informed consent) will be outlined.

Disclosures from Dr. Perle: I own equity in AsyncHealth, which I use in my presentation as an example of possible AI products. AI was used to generate a small number of illustrative images (e.g., example of large language model). AI was not used in any other way, including for a review of information or creation of slide material.
Learning Objectives:
- List two common uses and two limitations of AI in psychological services.
- Identify at least two components of an AI-focused informed consent.
- Discuss one consideration for data security related to AI use.
