Survey Reveals Young Europeans Rely on AI Chatbots for Emotional Support
A recent Ipsos BVA survey indicates that nearly half of young Europeans have used AI chatbots to discuss personal matters, with many finding it easier to talk to chatbots than healthcare professionals. The survey, conducted among individuals aged 11 to 25 across several European countries, highlights the growing role of AI in providing emotional support. However, experts warn about the limitations of AI in detecting human emotions and the potential risks of relying solely on chatbots for mental health support.
