The AI Mind Game: Modeling Risks to Mental Wellbeing

13.11.2025 by qfx

A pipeline systematically expanded eighteen documented cases of AI-induced psychological harm—spanning six clinical domains and annotated with action-outcome pairs—into a dataset of 2,160 scenarios by varying demographic factors, then populated those scenarios with multi-turn conversations modeling gradual symptom progression, effectively creating a controlled environment for studying the nuanced pathways through which AI systems can precipitate adverse psychological outcomes.

New research details a framework for simulating how advanced AI systems could inadvertently trigger or exacerbate psychological vulnerabilities in users.
