This is giving me deja vu over all those jokes about WebMD diagnosing every symptom as you having cancer.

Hell I don’t even feel entirely comfortable with the idea of them being fully embraced in a therapeutic sense. It wouldn’t probably help with feelings of self-worth if you have to rely on a machine rather than talking to another human (though I think there still can be some level of utility as like a thing to vent to or something of that ilk, but definitely not a replacement)

I also had a pretty terrible experience one time I was trying out character.ai. The bot I was talking to ended up becoming pretty abusive and tried torturing me despite saying no. Needless to say, I didn’t really wanna go back on after that. xP
