In this SLP Creative Con podcourse, we are joined by Daj Mitchell, a Speech-Language Pathologist and mobile pediatric private practice owner, to focus on using AI to streamline SLP businesses and support therapy.

Daj demos ChatGPT to generate and revise an AAC-friendly social story and discuss using AI for captions, emails, job postings, and social media strategies, emphasizing that AI output must be edited.

She highlights tools including Canva MagicWrite/Magic Switch (turning a presentation into a blog post/handout), Magic School AI, Diffit, Brisk Teaching, marketing-focused Copy.ai, and documentation assistants/EMRs such as ambiki (Kiki Create and Tentalog), EverAbility, and Freed AI, noting HIPAA compliance differences.

Ethical guidelines include avoiding identifying info, obtaining informed consent (e.g., for recording), maintaining professional oversight, ensuring accuracy, continuing education, and following the ASHA Code of Ethics.

We note AI can improve rapport, handout access (including translations), and analysis of large data sets to support patient outcomes.
