A Therapist got AI Psychosis


Listen Later

An actual psychologist! BUT. big caveat, She hasnt studied this in any professional capacity, this is a brand new thing and no one really has any authority on what's going on. That being said, she did experience the phenomenon we are (probably incorrectly) referring to as ChatGPT psychosis, so I thought it would be extremely valuable to have her perspective.
