MODERATORS
Honestly, that's a really sketchy thing to do. But if someone is really listening to an ai chatbot for therapy, then they've got bigger problems in their lives.
So it’s okay to make it worse?
No? I'm just saying that it's unreasonable to trust chatbots to do anything properly, certainly not with one's mental health. If someone is listening to an ai chatbot for therapy, they probably don't have good friends, and certainly not the money for legitimate therapy.
Yeah those people without the money or friends should just not be heard /s
