All their responses are generated, no conscience there, just AI. “Another brick in the wall” hits stronger than ever now.

    Please don’t use LLMs for therapy. I know it feels like it’s helping, but LLMs are specifically designed to tell you what you want to hear. People have been convinced to do some very terrible things because the LLMs keep reinforcing beliefs instead of challenging them or pushing back.

    I know everything kind of sucks right now, but don’t make it worse by letting the LLM/AI economy start messing with your actual brain.

      Terrible advice. LLM chatbots have very positive results for therapy and while it doesn’t replace a human contact it is far, far better than nothing.

      Actually crazy to get upvoted for saying to people in need they should just suck it up.
