Our project aims to transform mental health assessments by leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) to automate projective techniques. Traditional mental health evaluations are often time-consuming and subject to human biases, leading to inconsistencies and delays in diagnosis. By integrating AI, we provide a solution that ensures rapid, consistent, and unbiased analysis, addressing the critical shortage of mental health professionals and facilities. The TAT is a projective psychological test designed to reveal a person’s underlying motives, concerns, and the way they see the social world through the stories they create about ambiguous images. Benefits: 1. Efficiency and Speed: AI can analyze patient responses in real time, drastically reducing the time required for initial assessments. This allows for quicker identification of potential mental health issues and timely intervention. 2. Consistency and Unbiased Analysis: AI algorithms provide standardized evaluations, eliminating the variability that can occur with human assessments. This ensures all patients receive equal care quality, regardless of the assessor. 3. Resource Optimization: By automating routine screening tasks, our solution frees up mental health professionals to focus on more complex cases, enhancing overall patient care and reducing clinician burnout. 4. Enhanced Accessibility: AI-driven tools can be deployed in remote or underserved areas, increasing access to mental health assessments for populations that might otherwise lack care. 5. Early Detection and Intervention: Automated screenings can identify mental health issues at an earlier stage, allowing for timely interventions that improve long-term outcomes. By continually refining our FALCON LLM and expanding our assessment capabilities, we envision a future where mental health care is more accessible, efficient, and effective worldwide.
