The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) heralds a significant revolution in healthcare, particularly in mental health. AI's potential spans diagnostic algorithms, data analysis from diverse sources, and real-time patient monitoring. It is essential for clinicians to remain informed about AI's progress and limitations. The inherent complexity of mental disorders, limited objective data, and retrospective studies pose challenges to the application of AI. Privacy concerns, bias, and the risk of AI replacing human care also loom. Regulatory oversight and physician involvement are needed for equitable AI implementation. AI integration and use in psychotherapy and other services are on the horizon. Patient trust, feasibility, clinical efficacy, and clinician acceptance are prerequisites. In the future, governing bodies must decide on AI ownership, governance, and integration approaches. While AI can enhance clinical decision-making and efficiency, it might also exacerbate moral dilemmas, autonomy loss, and issues regarding the scope of practice. Striking a balance between AI's strengths and limitations involves utilizing AI as a validated clinical supplement under medical supervision, necessitating active clinician involvement in AI research, ethics, and regulation. AI's trajectory must align with optimizing mental health treatment and upholding compassionate care.
