Journal of Other Forum Analysis (Volume II, Issue 2)

[Boredfrom]

Large language models, such as ChatGPT, have been shown to be incorrect and, at times, dangerous when used as therapy. Due to this, we can't host a discussion advocating the use of it for therapy and we encourage OP to not give up on professional therapists.

I mean, he is not wrong in locking a stupid thread made by an unhinged dude.  

Regardless of your opinion of AI, using it as therapy is laughable.

[September 5, 2025] Amazon Prime Video has a 32-episode TV series featuring Gordon Ramsay's daughter, Tilly, first eight episodes available now

I know the forum relies on people posting about stuff they like, but this thread really reads like an ad.

I've seen a lot of strange posts on ERA recently. Some seemingly paid for advertising, some very questionable pro AI slop and more. Where OP's put a ton of effort into the post but then abandon it.

Also, they make their profile private too.

I know on Reddit, people who farm karma the seller their account to advertisers.

This is seemingly reminsent of that

#ad

I'm sorry but the OP feels like an ad read. The not needed extra info on the bottom, the fucking last part telling us "episodes available now" is so blatantly an ad read.
Very bizarre.

OP is a news poster account, possibly bot. It may be astroturfing, but they post news from all over the place, so it's not an Amazon ad bot at least.

Thankfully a mod stepped in. 

User warned: inflammatory accusations toward other members

nah

programmers talk to inanimate rubber ducks to solve their coding problems, anything can be therapeutic

if you can get value out of talking to nothing, then you can also get value out of talking to something with a facsimile of a response

Nah, don’t pretend you didn’t know what I meant about “using AI as therapy”, Uncle. Your contrarian wired brain needs limits.

Usually that's when showing support is easy and trendy which is not how I'd view showing support for trans rights in this climate.

  tf is this nepenthe-ass threat

I'm not pretending anything, most of therapy is just talking to someone and feeling like they're listening even if they don't suggest any particular course of action

talking to inanimate objects can be therapeutic, and so can talking to chatbots

I have no idea what other interpretations you're talking about

can we get this in the header rotation

[Boredfrom]

Saying that you were a contrarian just for contrarian sake was giving you the benefit of doubt over this:

Uncle doesn’t believe in therapy and thinks that talking to an inanimate object is good for your mental health.

Relax Uncle… Go touch several yards of grass.

Jeeze, I can’t believe we are extremely close to getting The Bire mentioned on a manifesto.

I believe therapeutic experiences are broader than whatever your narrow definition is, and whatever you consider to have helped you is valid

Yes, talking with ChatGPT is totally helping this guy:

I have tried therapy. All six times was paying hundreds of dollars for a gaslighting quack. Opening up to these assholes only for them to not bother listening. Asking them to do thier jobs, even a tolerable level, is impossible. Better therapy would be to go back to being an alcoholic, or hope that the therapist is replaced with a knife wielding maniac because bleeding out beats saying a syllable.

[Uncle]

I just said whatever helps you is valid

if it's not helping you, maybe you should stop

that doesn't suddenly mean it's universally unhelpful to everyone 



can someone explain why I can't post a single thing on this site without this guy jumping all over me? I can go days without posting and the instant I'm back and I say "hey I just ate pizza" and he's like "um ackchewally to be fair"

This isn't a reason not to use AI as therapy, if it was, then Messofanego and heathen earth alone would disprove the use of therapists as therapy. The reason AI should not be used for therapy is because they're deliberate black boxes. (And since they're trying to replicate humans, they're terrible at using sources correctly.)

[Boredfrom]

Totally not gaslighting. 

“I didn’t say something stupid, it’s you imposing yourself over my totally normal take on AI and therapy.”

Y'all ain't serious people. Might I suggest some very affordable healthcare, perhaps couples therapy?

To be fair, you jumped in with a "nah" response to him first. Not that that's bad, but you did initiate the disagreement.

But anyway, the therapist industry is IMO by and large worthless (or in the case of gender dysphoria affirmation, extremely harmful), but I also think there are some good apples amongst them. But yeah, I don't recommend therapy unless you're suicidal or need pro-family marriage counseling or something. The modern "everyone should have a therapist" is something I disagree with. Seems like a marketing ploy to inflate their industry, tbh, and I'm only making that judgment based on what I see as the merits (or lack thereof) of casual therapy.

Try to deal with extremely depressed family members that refuse to seek therapy and never improve.

[Boredfrom]

Boredfrom you need to jerk off or something

Nah. Don’t gaslight me bro.

[HardcoreRetro]

It's okay to feel that way.

[StandingOvation]

At this time, lest I remind you all;

cum.
