In China, young people are turning to artificial intelligence (AI) for emotional support, particularly through the “DeepSeek” platform.
This AI-powered tool, similar to ChatGPT, offers virtual “therapy” sessions, helping users cope with personal challenges and feelings of isolation. For example, Holly Wang, a 28-year-old from Guangzhou, has found solace in DeepSeek conversations, finding them more effective than traditional paid counseling services. Several studies have shown that depression and anxiety disorders are on the rise in China. However, experts warn that people with serious mental health problems should not rely solely on these apps.
