It’s OK, reading is hard, especially if you’ve given up thinking.

Fuckin yikes dawg.
I’d get it if you liked it because it helps you understand calculus 3 or some stem shit, but thinking it’s helping with your mental health is mad yikes.
There are low cost resources out there to get legit help. Also, group therapy ain’t that bad. Using AI to “discus” philosophy or to ease your anxiety is self sucking. You’re not really broadening yourself, you’re allowing it to create an algorithm that you prefer and then it uses what it’s learned to jerk you off.

you don’t discuss anything… you search things on the internet and it gas lights you into believing. it’s not a conversation, it’s a prompt…it’s 1 way dialogue.
it doesn’t help with anxiety…it has lights you into thinking it does. it makes you reliant on it. you consider it help so you put your guard down while it slowly erodes your critical and logical thinking skills to the point where you won’t be able to function without it…resulting in massive anxiety and most likely being thrown over the top as a result of not being able to access it 24/7 for whether reason.

But does it do any worse than c/linux? Does it gaslight you into nixos and give you anxiety about rollbacks/rebuilds?

Installing Linux is possible with human written guides the slop is pushing out.
Anxiety and mental health should be fixed by people not a computer program to confirm your own biases.

Because before AI nobody ever managed to install Linux!
Where do you think AI gets its Linux-installing knowledge from? A gazillion blogs explaining how to install Linux.

As someone with their own bag of mental health issues, including anxiety, I really can’t stress enough that you should seek a human health professional. They will help you much more than a robot ever could.
The other uses, eh whatever, even tho I hate ai as much as most people in this thread. But don’t use it as a replacement for actual mental help

Get the fuck away from me, Todd. I don’t wanna hear about your weird conversation with AI about philosophy.

Sorry everyone here is acting in a way that likely will give you more anxiety.
AI has great potential in both directions. For many people, or in many instances, it will do the wrong thing and can produce dangerous outcomes (such as the psychosis people are referring to in this thread). But, if used responsibly alongside human assistance it is much more accessible and affordable (for now) than sets of mental health tools which are lacking in MANY ways and very few people would deny this.
I have seen it used both very well for health and also very poorly. It really depends on the skill of the user, just like most tools.
I think it’s very valid to question why other people aren’t getting the same results as you, but there’s many reasons why. Someone who can’t readily and accurately describe their situation or needs will suffer from choosing to learn from an AI, where as someone who is more knowledgeable about the topic, logic or communication is more likely to get benefit. The challenge is that… These people don’t know how to differentiate between the two groups and all will end up with mistakes from the AI affecting them.

If you need AI just to install Linux, you should stick to Windows.
