The idea that there are people crafting bespoke AI's in the personality of a suicidal patient or a suicidal friend says so much about where this tech is taking us.
Nicely done. It seems that with AI we are exponentiating opportunities to unleash the worst elements of the human psyche. Its becoming like the computational version of junk food - the more 'delicious' crap we have available to us through 'food engineering' the less we can resist. How many versions of GPT will it take before we psychically implode?

I agree, Margaret. This is why I didn't link to the company.

I wonder if having little AI on your life will become a mark of privilege. The psychic equivalent of high-end no-corn-syrup organic fresh food.
