Abstract

The desire for healing is present in everyone living with a mental disorder. They may live with difficulties that feel permanent or irreversible, often spend their days tirelessly seeking new pathways out of this situation and are faced with the spectre of uncertainty. Precision psychiatry holds great promise for using digital health data and artificial intelligence (AI) to help people with mental disorders heal by personalising their care to what is most effective for them and to help prevent their onset (1,2). Those living with mental disorders and individuals at risk for developing them have concerns relating to the use of AI, as do many in the general population. It is important to consider the potential implications of precision psychiatry and how we can best navigate ethical challenges through strong collaborations with experts by experience (3). For those living with mental disorders to trust in precision psychiatry, it must be accurate, useful, transparent, secure, maintained, equitable and empowering. We will discuss these points informed by the views of experts by experience.
