An AI therapist can already easily handle general good mental advice, such as reducing cognitive load, perspective shifts, alternative methodologies, education of standard mental needs, processes and whatever low-level stuff we can benefit from. 2. hooman therapists are a coin-toss. Most are completely crap and build their business from archaic and/or wrong theories and personal ideology/feelings. 3. whatever flaws AI have now, is going away really really fast.
Hooman therapists cost a lot of money, and a shitload of people won’t get any help at all without AI.
So, I think it is fine. The potential damage is far less than no help at all. Just use a little common sense and don’t take anything as a Gospel - just as when we see hooman therapists.
You simply don’t get it, there are shit loads of people who are struggling with their mental health and for various reasons they cannot find and/or afford a therapist. So yes, better to have an AI therapist than no therapist.
I am one of those people lmao and no. it’s a false sense of security (or in this case, rather than security, benefits.). it is increasing antisocial behaviors which is already an exponentially rising issue, and even if in the future, ai can be helpful in this context, it’s currently not in that place.
I think this is true and until we have easily accessible and free mental health services it is the next best option and far more likely to do good than harm.
Not sure…

if you converse with an AI in any social capacity (yes therapy is still a form of socialization) you are a fucking loser.
I think passing judgement on people who are trying to get mental health assistance within their means makes you far more of a fucking loser.
I didn’t say they are inherently losers. the behavior is that of a loser though. 🤷♀️ fuck off
