The idea isn’t new or evil per se, since anyone that had to spend 2+ days in a hospital knows how dreadful it can feel. The problem here is relying on current AI tech, which may end up suggesting suicide during the chats, and the companies’ pinky promises that your privacy and data won’t be leaked or sold to the lowest bidder

I agree, but usually the vendor picks the highest bidder ;)
