So you think you can AI? AMT’s New Position Statement on use of Artificial Intelligence

When the robot uprising finally happens, we want to make sure it doesn’t start with your client notes accidentally being uploaded to SkyNet.

In a future where deep tissue work triggers the awakening of a quantum neural network that thinks it’s a qualified remedial massage therapist, AMT’s new position statement on artificial intelligence may be the only document standing between civilisation as we know it and a dystopian future where rogue AI programs diagnose every MSK condition as “restricted fascia”.

Wait …

Is massage having its subluxation moment?

We asked AI to write a janky poem about the latest AMT blog. The result is jankier than we expected. 10/10 recommend that you just skip straight to our latest blog post by Aran Bright.

If it doesn’t hurt, it’s just a rub,
A gentle tickle at the pub.
But dig right in—ignore the screams—
That’s how you realign their dreams.

A knot, a lump, a gnarly mass,
Must beat it down, or let it pass?
The client grunts, “No pain, no gain
I’ll grit my teeth and bear the pain.”
