Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is poised to revolutionize speech pathology by enhancing assessment precision, personalizing therapy, and improving accessibility. This editorial discusses emerging AI applications, including automated speech analysis, predictive modeling, and virtual therapy assistants. It also considers ethical, practical, and professional challenges in adopting AI technologies. Embracing AI thoughtfully can empower speech-language pathologists (SLPs) to deliver more effective and efficient care, heralding a new era in communication disorders management.
