Business Insider’s markets site reports on new AMFM Healthcare findings about stress and artificial intelligence. The national study of 2,000 adults examines how cost-of-living pressure, disrupted sleep, loneliness, social media, and changing digital habits are shaping mental health across the United States.
The findings show that people use a wide mix of coping strategies, from physical activity and social connection to substances and digital tools. Nearly one-third reported using AI tools or chatbots for stress support, often because they are immediately available. AMFM notes that these tools can complement professional care but should not replace human connection or clinical treatment.
AMFM Healthcare remains committed to studying the pressures that affect everyday mental health and expanding access to responsive, evidence-based support. This coverage reinforces the need for practical coping options that are healthy, accessible, and grounded in meaningful human care.
