Is AI the Missing Ingredient for Curbing Cravings? Emotional Eating Meets Machine Learning with Dr. Sera Lavelle
Description
Can AI understand our relationship with food better than we do?
In this episode of Your AI Injection, host Deep Dhillon sits down with Dr. Sera Lavelle, clinical psychologist and CEO of Bea Better Eating, to explore how AI is revolutionizing our approach to emotional eating. Dr. Lavelle explains why traditional calorie-counting apps fail to address the psychological triggers that cause us to reach for cookies after a stressful day. She reveals how her app fills a crucial gap between diet advice and clinical therapy, helping users identify when they're eating from emotion rather than hunger. The two dive into the ethical challenges of developing AI for mental health, including how to responsibly direct users to human therapists when necessary. Will AI become our most trusted confidant for the feelings we're too ashamed to share with nutritionists or therapists? Tune in to discover how machine learning might become the missing ingredient in breaking destructive eating cycles.
