Including someone just yesterday who said they’ve STOPPED SEEING THEIR PSYCHOLOGIST and are ONLY USING CHATGPT for therapy now.

This shit is genuinely dangerous. “AI” therapy got me feeling like a-guy bro fr.

Deteriorating material conditions + expensive mental healthcare options + LLMs that recommend tall bridges to suicidal people, what a fucking great recipe

That’s without even getting into the privacy concerns of telling your deepest feelings and secrets to a fucking chatbot that literally builds a profile on you. Someone else said to me recently that they basically use chatgpt to journal so it knows everything about them and their friends and god knows what else. So yeh, take comfort in the fact that even if you’ve never interacted with this dogshit, it could probably still have a deep profile on you because one of your dumbass friends decided to use it as a diary because LLMs just agree with everything you say and are very validating.

If you're a loner, or someone who is used to little interaction or interactions only happening through texting, email, etc. LLMs are tempting in that they don't take much more effort to say stuff to than modes of communication you're already used to, with immediate feedback that give you a little rush at first, but wears off.

I've tried a few times. All it does is agree with you and spit the same turns of phrase, the same formats, etc. right back at you. it's a mimicry of a perfect echo chamber that will repeat itself and never tell you to stop talking to it.

But when you close the app, you're alone with your thoughts. That is a scary, scary thing for people.
