It invites you to slow down, reflect, and engage with nuanced discussions at the intersection of medicine, ethics, and lived experience. Episodes explore provocative questions in Indian healthcare, through stories from government hospitals seen by an intern. Season 1 begins with “Medical Ethics – An Indian Perspective,” marking the start of a long journey into medicine, law, and philosophy.Dr. Hareesh A and Dr. Vithya M Education

    Episode 030: AI in Mental Health. Where are we drawing the line?
    Jan 23 2026

    In this episode, we attempt to discuss the effects of artificial intelligence in healthcare and especially in mental health. Psychiatry happens to be one of the most unique specialties of medicine which requires immense empathy, cultural context and understanding of pain, trauma and emotion. Can a Chatbot do the same and offer the required empathy and compassion to a mentally ill person?

    Join us in this episode of our podcast to discuss the importance of Artificial Intelligence and it’s impact on mental health.


    Let’s build a world where ethics isn’t just a chapter in our textbooks.
