It is commonly accepted that "mental health is a positive concept related to the social and emotional wellbeing of individuals and communities," and "having good mental health, or being mentally healthy, is more than just the absence of illness, rather it is a state of overall wellbeing."

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is concerned with computing technologies that allow machines to see, hear, talk, think, learn, and solve problems, like human being. The huge potential of applying AI for mental health and wellbeing represents an exciting future. In addition, humans may be interconnected in a revolutionary way to stimulate tremendous amount of interesting activities.

The symposium on Artificial Intelligence for Wellbeing (ai4wb), is an international forum for academia and industries to exchange visions and ideas in the state of the art and practice of Artificial Intelligence and mental health/wellbeing, as well as to identify the emerging topics and define the future of AI for Mental Health and Wellbeing.
