It's also banning licensed therapists from using AI. FTA:
> Licensed therapists in Illinois are now forbidden from using AI to make treatment decisions or communicate with clients, though they can still use AI for administrative tasks
Your doctor can diagnose your cancer with AI, but your therapist can't diagnose your ADHD with AI.
Not that reliably diagnosing cancer is easy, but reliably diagnosing a mental issue is much harder. That's not a stupid place to put a hard restriction.

Stupid law is stupid.
