Massachusetts S3206 regulates the use of artificial intelligence in therapy and psychotherapy services.

Massachusetts S3206 establishes guidelines for the use of artificial intelligence in therapy and psychotherapy services. It mandates that only licensed professionals can provide such services, and they must maintain full responsibility for all interactions and outputs. The bill prohibits AI from making independent therapeutic decisions, directly interacting with clients, generating outcomes, offering emotional support, or collaborating on treatment plans. AI can only be used for administrative support or supplementary support, with patient consent.
