It’s cheap, quick and available 24/7, but is a chatbot therapist really the right tool to tackle complex emotional needs?
That would assume the people designing AI want what is best for the person and not what will make them the most money at the expense of the consumer.
The companies involved in AI are NOT benevolent.
You could just run your own. There are plenty of open source models that don’t answer to any company.
Why dont i just give myself therapy? I know way more about what is going on in my head than anyone else does.
Because what’s going on in your own head a would taint your treatment plan and cause it the be a self-defeating plan.
Maybe one day that’ll actually be possible.
