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

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 wonder how it would feel to have GPT-3 predict your next lines in a conversation with a therapist once it's trained on a corpus of your journal entries
The next lines would be like a mirror to yourself. If they look like what you would have said, the model understands you

I just read this to my grandma and she said "Wow! Just like human. I don't talk to people much now. Nowadays I try to think of a word and it seems I just can't remember. I wonder if I can practice talking to the computer like this. Maybe it will help me from Alzheimer's."
