What exactly is the concern here by Headway? Are they afraid AI deep fakes will be receiving therapy?
Obviously they are doing data collection and selling training data of emotional conversations to AI labs. But what's their stated justification? I can't figure it out.
The risk is that a drug dealer or addict pays people to use their identities and possibly insurance info, pretends to be them and to have ADHD in telehealth sessions, and stockpiles Adderall.
Yeah this feels like an over-excited nothingburger from 404. Of course you need to verify who the hell you're going to write an electronic prescription for a controlled substance is actually who they say they are.
It's literally just a government ID check/liveliness check. In this case... it's needed.
Government-issued IDs work and human verification of them is largely successful. This is not about correct verification, it’s about cheap machine-based verification. The dehumanization of it is part of how they plan to make money.
So yes verification is needed. We can do that just fine without more facial recognition intruding into everyday affairs.

Probably medication fraud.
They mention heightened scrutiny around controlled substances (with amphetamines for ADHD as an example) on the FAQ. https://help.headway.co/hc/en-us/articles/29673299878676-Doc...

insurance compliance?
Isn't gov ID + selfie check the standard for a majority of online healthcare in the last few years?
Please drink verification can to continue.
Nope.
