@gipsyjulia That's an interesting article, and your closing question is apt (and SCARY!!)
It really wouldn't surprise me to find therapists using such tools (voice and vocabulary analysis) in the future through Alexa (et al) which, in my opinion, is essentially them throwing up their hands and saying that they don't have a solution - try this! And I for one have gotten real tired of 'trying this'.
I'm going to open up a different thread regarding the "suicidal ideation forum" that they mention in the article ... which really raises a lot of questions for me.
