My friend told me they were doing it so I gave it a shot by sharing with ChatGPT some of my most troubling woes. I just blabbered my feelings without thought of how to best structure it for a chatbot.

It works shockingly well. The chatbot obviously doesn’t judge you so you never feel guilty but it also doesn’t agree blindly with you. It pushes you on the stuff that a therapist would push on. It acknowledges the complexity of your situation and doesn’t push any kind of agenda on you.

I genuinely feel like I have more clarity in my life from talking to a stupid robot and I don’t know how to feel about it. I feel kinda thankful? Like I was listened to. What a god drat crazy thing.

I did it for a while and I felt I couldn’t be totally honest with them. I just couldn’t get to that zone where I could say “Hey I hear what you’re saying but right now I would prefer to do the selfish avoidant thing rather than the right thing.” I felt like I was constantly being steered towards the solution that would fix me and they didn’t wanna even entertain the Bad Ending. And maybe sure as poo poo they were right but I don’t think you’re always ready for the fix.

By contrast the stupid robot seemed to recognize my hesitation and while it did keep going “dipshit you should think about this” it did eventually offer different wages of thinking while still saying “dipshit i know im saying a lot of other stuff now but don’t forget to think about that other thing i said.”

it’s nice because you can be a Bad Person and not have to worry your human therapist is judging you. at the same time the robot isn’t just blindly going with you. it’s a guilt free zone for treating the guilty

There's only like four reasons a therapist could ever break confidentiality

And no therapist should be judging you. If they do find a new one

Also you know a human reads these prompts right? At least with an actual licensed therapist it's between you and them, not you and Alexander Dolittle, LLM Specialist

Obviously this is a terrible idea for a million other reasons, but really? I wouldn't be surprised if some random sampling of prompts and responses are read by the techies to perform tweaks and QA poo poo, and likely for advertising purposes - see what sort of poo poo people ask the LLM, but all prompts? Or is that just what you mean and simply are implying the "might read" rather than "reads"?
Because if they are in fact paying humans to read every single prompt then lmao these stupid loving doomsday machines are even dumber and more useless than I thought.

I guess it came across as they read every prompt but maybe I should have amended to say "can read these prompts"

Because like you said it's probably a random sampling. I assume though there's certain keywords baked in that may alert the techies to read the prompts more closely

If it was cheap then healthcare companies would have already done it.

What's funny to do for companies like Felix or Noom or whatever they advertise this time of year, have a look at the Glassdoor ratings. You'll see lots of posts form the therapists/counsellors whatever that they are overworked and underpaid.

If you think you need a therapist DO NOT use social media, or AI that has been built by scraping social media, to diagnose yourself. Self diagnosis via TikTok will make your worse.
