Welcome!
This is a safe place to discuss, vent, support, and share information about mental health, illness, and wellness.
Thank you for being here. We appreciate who you are today. Please show respect and empathy when making or replying to posts.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
1-Posts promoting paid products and services of any kind are not allowed here.
2-All posts and comments must be helpful and supportive. Do not put vulnerable people at risk.
3-Do not DM or ask to speak privately to any of our members unless they specifically request it.
If a person from this community disturbs you in a comment, please report the comment. If you receive a DM you did not request, send a screenshot of the DM in a message to a moderator. This is a bannable offense.
4-Suicide, Self-Harm, Death-- Extended discussions are STRONGLY DISCOURAGED here. First, mods and community members are caring people, but not experts in crisis situations. Second, we want to avoid Lemmy becoming like many commercial social media platforms, where comments can snowball into counterproductive talk.
If you or someone you know needs more help than can be found here, please refer to the pinned resources.
If BRIEF mention of these topics is an important part of your post, please flag your post as NSFW and include a (trigger warning: suicide, self-harm, death, etc.)in the title so that other readers who may feel triggered can avoid it.

That means that neural-net/deep-learning therapist if done properly is a real potential.
And that means that we may finally hae a psychological equivalent to a "cane" or "wheelchair", soon, to help us when we're too exhausted to help ourselves, or when we need another's help, & there is no other, except for money which we don't have..
( no, I'm not saying that any for-profit business would do it properly.
I AM saying it's now possible. : )

Doing it properly is the important part. Without curation, RAG, and/or very strict quality control, you're gonna have a bad time. Like those who got a ChatGPT bot advising them how to best contribute to their eating disorders.
Yeah it's theoretically possible the same way cold fusion is theoretically possible
Exactly.
