AI in Social Work Practice: Tools, Trends, and Tensions

(NASW Approval # 886970186-6158)

Date & Time: Nov. 13th 3pm-5pm CST

Location: Zoom

Session Details: Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies such as ChatGPT, along with social media and app-based tools, are rapidly reshaping human interaction, mental health, and community well-being, offering creativity and connection while also introducing risks like AI-related suicides, emotional dependence (“AI psychosis”), and sextortion through deepfakes. These developments affect not only clients’ mental health and safety but also labor markets, environmental sustainability, and systemic inequities. This training prepares social workers to assess, intervene, and advocate effectively by examining both the benefits and harms of AI, exploring its mental health implications, and developing strategies to integrate this awareness into practice, policy advocacy, and client engagement.
