In this special experiment, I let AI take over my podcast. That’s right—ChatGPT wrote the script and ElevenLabs generated my voice. No humans were harmed (though one was a little unsettled). This episode kicks off a four-part series on AI in clinical assessment. I explore why AI matters for our work as testing clinicians, how it’s already creeping into our workflows, and what questions we need to be asking now about ethics, liability, and clinical voice. It’s equal parts thrilling and terrifying, but either way, the future is here.

Main Topics Covered
  • Why I created a fully AI-generated episode
  • The role of AI in psychological and neuropsychological assessment
  • Six practical applications of AI for clinicians:
    1. Report drafting
    2. Data summarization
    3. Diagnostic formulation support
    4. Tailored language templates
    5. Scheduling and communication
    6. Thinking partner/decision support
    7. Ethical and clinical risks: homogenization, liability, nuance, and confidentiality
    8. The experiment of letting AI “write” parts of a behavioral observation section
    9. Key questions about authorship, responsibility, and data security
    10. Why AI should be treated like any other clinical tool—validate before use, keep the human in the loop
    11. What’s coming in the next three episodes of the AI series:
      1. Practical tools and workflows
      2. Ethics, supervision, and clinical judgment
      3. AI competency rubric for clinicians and trainees
      4. Cool Things Mentioned

          About Dr. Jeremy Sharp

          I’m a licensed psychologist and Clinical Director at the Colorado Center for Assessment & Counseling, a private practice that I founded in 2009 and have grown to over 20 clinicians. I earned my undergraduate degree in Experimental Psychology from the University of South Carolina before getting my Master’s and PhD in Counseling Psychology from Colorado State University. These days, I specialize in psychological and neuropsychological evaluation with kids and adolescents.

          As the host of the Testing Psychologist Podcast, I provide private practice consulting for psychologists and other mental health professionals who want to start or grow psychological testing services in their practices. I live in Fort Collins, Colorado with my wife (also a therapist) and two young kids.
