If my therapist is using any sort of AI, I’m finding a new therapist and reporting them.
Therapists are secretly using ChatGPT. Clients are triggered.

My therapist is actually extremely against LLMs being used in a clinical sense, and also opts out of them when her own healthcare providers use them. She’s a good one, and I respect her a lot for that stance

I’d drop a therapist so fast if they were doing this.
Their main job is to listen. I’ve never had one who even took notes during our sessions.

i was planning a hate-read cuz yaknow if the author uses “triggered” is in the headline the article will be laughably bad… but like 3 things popped up on the site before i could even begin my hate read so i guess instead I’m just gonna blacklist that whole technologyreview@ibbit.at website.
garbage

They’re not “triggered” they’re pissed their doctor is offloading work to a chatbot and violating HIPAA because the chatbot retains everything you type into it for future training.
If shrinks are using chat it’s to do their work and not disclosing to patients and getting their consent…
That’s a huge liability in multiple legal aspects
