📢 I am very excited to share that I wrote a #psychology book with #ChatGPT ! 📙 "The AI's Guide to Psychological Well-Being" 🤯 Discover the factors that impact psychological #Wellbeing and learn practical tips to cultivate a positive mindset! 🔗 To buy 👉 https://amzn.eu/d/eswVyxA ✍️ Story of the book: For a long time, as a psychologist, I wanted to write a book on psychological well-being for creating a handy guide that can help people struggling with hardships. After the advent of Chat GPT by OpenAI, I became fascinated by its ability to human-like writing and the vast amount of information that it can provide. I checked the Internet for other AI-written books and found numerous novels. However, to the best of my knowledge, there were no books on psychological topics. Therefore I decided to use #ChatGPT to create such a book during my Christmas brake 🤭 It started with me asking “Can you write me a book on psychological well-being?” and the response was an outline for such a book! I added subchapters such as myths about topics, importance and relevance to psychological well-being, and additional questions to language model. I meticulously read the whole text and corrected it for scientific errors and added references. Therefore, it's important to note that this work isn't utterly created by AI since the idea, initiative and ethical considerations didn't originate from a language model. This book represents an AI language model’s “perception” of human thoughts, emotions, behaviours, habits, relationships, need for meaning, and physical and psychological well-being. I am looking forward to debates and consecutive insights this will incite. For the cover art, I used none other than OpenAI’s DALL-E 2 model to generate images. Therefore, the cover also represents the AI’s “understanding” of these concepts... Finally, I hope this book inspires others in using the latest technology for the benefit of humankind, incites new discussions and most importantly I hope this book helps the readers in improving and maintaining their psychological well-being. #psychologicalwellbeing #psychology #book #AI #mentalhealth #mentalwellbeing #selfhelp
