After hearing about friends having great experiences treating GPT-3 as a therapist I tried it myself and 5 minutes in oh my god it goes straight for the throat I feel so seen
Conversation
I tried to find a good screenshot to attach to this but honestly I’m not willing to share any of this. I’m open almost to a fault, but this is too close to home

I thought you made a good point so I did another run being as depressive as I could. I sampled most “John” lines only once, I think I ran one twice. I’m really impressed
The prefix makes a difference but that could be automatically prepended by an end-user therapy app

I was just chatting with the Replica app, it seems to fail badly if I switch context, like joke in between a serious conversation. I wonder how GPT would react in such situations.

At this rate of progress, gpt3 will make most psychiatrists unemployable. This is mind blowing.

The semantics of language are reproducible into some form when a model has, like, 4 billion parameters. I question, however, the ability of an object to produce “creative truth” through stochastic processes.

There is so much to be written about this.
Jacques Lacan said the subconscious is made of language. I think he might have been on to something.
I'm still not sure GPT-3 can be an analyst, tho. See the Borges thread...
