As artificial intelligence (AI) reshapes how professionals deliver care, social workers in private practice stand at the intersection of technology and human connection. This panel brings together social workers in private practice to explore how AI can enhance or hinder care. This panel will discuss the pros and cons, benefits, and challenges of using AI as a tool. We hope that attendees will leave with practical insights and best practices for using AI effectively.
