Abstract in brief

Artificial Intelligence (AI) shows great promise in transforming mental health care by improving diagnosis, prediction, and personalized treatment options, but there are still limitations and ethical considerations to address.
Analyzing 28 studies that used various data sources like electronic health records, brain imaging, social media, and mood scales, AI demonstrated high accuracy in identifying and classifying mental health conditions such as depression, schizophrenia, and suicidal tendencies, mainly serving as proof-of-concept.
While advancements in AI could lead to earlier detection and more personalized mental health treatments, careful caution is needed to avoid overinterpreting early results, and further research is essential to effectively incorporate AI into clinical practice.
