A new arXiv paper evaluates the safety risks of AI therapy bots for Generation Alpha, finding that while models like Claude, GPT-4o, and Llama-3.1 understand most vocabulary, they struggle to accurately assess clinical risk. This leads to a significant gap between vocabulary comprehension and risk calibration, with failure patterns including sarcasm masking and minimization acceptance. The researchers propose mandatory human-in-the-loop architectures and regulatory frameworks to address these critical safety concerns. AI
