A human therapist might not or is less likely to share any personal details about your conversations with anyone.
An AI therapist will collate, collect, catalog, store and share every single personal detail about you with the company that owns the AI and share and sell all your data to the highest bidder.

And you know how Better Help is very scummy?

If a company pays for youtube sponsorships, they’re likely a scam.

Better help is the Amazon of the Therapy world.

the AI therapist probably can’t force you into a psych ward though, a human psychologist is obligated to (under the right conditions).

Who says that’s not coming in the next paid service based on this great idea for chatbots to provide therapy to the abused masses.

nobody, but local will continue to be an option (unless the government fucks up the laws)

I’m not advocating for it, but it could be just locally run and therefore unable to share anything?

The data isn’t useful if the person no longer exists.

Neither would a human therapist be inclined to find the perfect way to use all this information to manipulate people while they are being at their weakest.
They are also pushing for the idea of an AI “social circle” for increasingly socially isolated people through which world view and opinions can be bent to whatever whoever controls the AI desires.
What we are currently witnessing is a push for a human mind manipulation and control experiment that will make the Cambridge Analytica scandal look like a fun joke.

PSA that Nadella, Musk, saltman (and handful of other techfash) own dials that can bias their chatbots in any way they please. If you use chatbots for writing anything, they control how racist your output will be
