How do people use something like this as coach or therapist? This is genuine question. Side note, impressive project. Future of AI is offline mostly with few APIs in the cloud maybe.

Genuine answer: you say “Be a coach/therapist” followed by whatever you’d say to a coach/therapist.

I tried using Claude and ChatGPT like this: I would just write a free form journal entry. The feedback it gave was typically very useful and made journaling more rewarding.

  Given user data is folded back into the models, there is a snowball's chance in hell that I would input stuff I'd talk to a therapist about. When are people going to realize that their interactions with AIs are likely being analyzed/characterized, and that at some point, that analysis will be monetized?

    Use secret llama in a incognito window. Turn off the Internet and close the window when done.

Ever had a day where your bandwidth was constrained and you just knew something was wrong with a situation, but your brain lacked the juice or dexterity to connect/articulate the issue? If I have the presence of mind, I offload the work here. At the same time I have a strong understanding of how coaching works, as does my brain. I suspect that with all things LLM, some amount of proficiency is needed to truly get the prompts to work. The simplest option is to ask it to be a coach for you. This is going to be hit and miss. The better version is to specify the kind of coaching you want, or provide a rough outline of the issues on your mind and then ask for what kind of coach or therapist would make sense. I use either of these for example - 1) over designed - https://chat.openai.com/g/g-KD6jm0l4c-thought-council https://chat.openai.com/g/g-KD6jm0l4c-thought-council 2) base ver - https://chat.openai.com/g/g-Cdq3drl87-two-guides https://chat.openai.com/g/g-Cdq3drl87-two-guides Sadly OpenAI doesnt let you share active chats anymore, so it’s going to need a plus subscription.
