I would guess that it will be more like lie detector tests. In the beginning great claims will be made. Over time we'll find out that most of them are way off base, but we will find other important uses for it.
I’m not a doctor or psychologist, but there’s definitely some truth behind language and schizophrenia. My grandmother suffered from it and my dad often talks about how the moment he knew she was schizophrenic, or at least developing symptoms of it, was when she was talking about something. Her communication changed apparently and she started talking about things differently. While I don’t want AI committing people I definitely don’t think this is completely off base. I’d love to see more research. Especially around language schizophrenics use outside of “animals” and words that start with the letter “P”.
