People use LLMs as their therapist because they’re either unwilling to see or unable to afford a human one. Based on anecdotal Reddit comments, some people have even mentioned that an LLM was more “compassionate” than a human therapist.

Imo this is dangerous, given the memory features that both Claude and ChatGPT have. Of course, most medical data is already online but at least there are medical privacy laws for some countries.
