As mental health chatbots driven by artificial intelligence proliferate, a small number of states are trying to regulate them. Laws in Illinois, Nevada and Utah are among the first in the nation to put limits on or ban therapy chatbots. But app creators, policymakers and mental health advocates say it is just a start and federal regulation would be ideal. App makers worry the patchwork of laws could stifle innovation needed due to a nationwide shortage of human therapists. They also note that many of the laws don't cover generic chatbots like ChatGPT.

Valentine's Day is for lovers — but you don't need a romantic soulmate to celebrate. Experts say the holiday is a chance to consider just how rich, diverse and beneficial every form of love is. It can come from family, friends, pets, neighbors or community. Experts also say it's good to have several sources of connection, because one person can't provide all the connection you will need. Love's strong social connections, bonding and support are linked to better health.
