The problem is they are cheap and immediately available.

  It just feels a bit uncertain trusting our feelings to AI we don't truly understand.

    You don't truly understand the human therapist either.

      You do however have a hell of a lot more in common with them than with a profit driven algorithm that even its creators have no clue how it really works.

        > even its creators have no clue how it really works. What does this mean?

          Not having that discussion, go argue with someone else.

        The thing about all these arguments is they all apply to humans. We are all an opaque mess of conflicts of interests, inconsistencies and bias. Not sure if people aren’t thinking that through or if they’re vastly overestimating the trustworthiness and transparency of your average professional human.

        you have no clue how "them" work but you do know they are driven by profit as well.

  They aren’t truly cheap
  • codr7 1y ago
    Not even close, it's the most expensive waste of resources I can think of atm. We used to worry about Bitcoin, now Google is funding nuclear plants.

    Far cheaper than a human therapist, ignoring that they are entirely different things of course.
